What: Daniel Bennett Jazz Trio

When: 2-3:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 29

Where: Ormond Beach Library, 30 South Beach St.

Details: New York saxophonist Daniel Bennett performs his award-winning compositions on saxophone, flute, clarinet, and oboe all around the world, and has been hailed as one of the most original and unpredictable musical voices of his generation. Joined by guitarist Nat Janoff and percussionist Matthew Feick, the band was recently voted ‘Best New Jazz Group’ in New York City Hot House Magazine, and The Boston Globe described Bennett's music as "a mix of jazz, folk, and minimalism." Their modern jazz is fused with elements of surf rock and avant-pop, or "Good natured playful irreverence." His group is currently touring to promote their new album, Sinking Houseboat Confusion. We are thrilled The Daniel Bennett Group is making a stop in Ormond Beach. Please join us in the Library's auditorium for a very special presentation. As always, this Friends of the Library event is free and open to the public.
