About this event
Doors 7:45 PM, Music 8:30 PM - 2 sets of music Line-up: Owen Snider - Guitar Duncan Eagles - Tenor saxophone Billy Pod - Drum kit Jonny Wickham - Double bass About: Owen Snider’s music is a contemporary vision of jazz guitar, lyrical and exploratory, grounded in groove and harmonic colour. His compositions and improvisations reveal a deep connection to the post-bop and modern jazz traditions, while pushing those ideas forward with fresh rhythmic and melodic nuance. With influences ranging from Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter to Mark Turner and Joe Henderson, Owen’s compositions reflect a love of both harmony and storytelling. On stage, his playing balances detail and spontaneity, shaped as much by the moment and his bandmates as by the written material.

Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
