CABARET TONIGHT IN MARYLAND: TIZER FEATURING KAREN BRIGGS
TIZER, featuring Karen Briggs, will perform atBETHESDA BLUES & JAZZ SUPPER CLUB (7719 Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda, MD - 240-330-4500) on Thursday, January 16th at 8:00 pm. Driven by an explosive mix of jazz, rock, classical , jam band influences and Afro Cuban and world rhythms, "Downbeat" - the first studio album by TIZER, a multi-cultural band led by keyboardist/composer Lao Tizer- throws down a high powered collection of fresh instrumental music from one of today's rising stars of the world-fusion genre. Establishing themselves in the contemporary jazz world over the past few years, TIZER has spurred comparisons of a modern twist to the 70s and early 80s heyday of jazz fusion, when trailblazing ensembles like Return To Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra and Weather Report set the aesthetic standard. Truly embodying the title and spirit of his 2007 solo album "Diversify," Lao assembled a group of veteran world-class musicians to create a dynamic rich with new melodic, harmonic and improvisational possibilities. Co-produced by Lao and guitarist Jeff Kollman, the eclectic set includes five original compositions by Lao and numerous collaborations with his cohorts, including the first single "World In Rhythm," co-written with Emmy winner and Grammy nominated guitarist Chieli Minucci, best known as founder and leader of Special EFX. There is a $20 cover.
