Details
The New Vibes Jazz Quintet began as a trio in the spring of 1999 with Andy Macpherson (vibes, drums), Dan Brennan (bass), and Tom Wilson (piano) and evolved quickly into a quartet with the addition of Gary Tomlin on drums. Andy leads the group that now features original member Dan (bass) and the additions of John Zadro (piano), Jay Boehmer (drums) and Jerzy Kaplanek (violin). The group interprets jazz standards with a polished sound and fluid improvisation. Members of the group also contribute original compositions to their sets. Their two percussionists provide an extensive range of rhythmic expression. The group has often collaborated with other musicians including the Breigthaupt Brothers (N.Y.C. and L.A.), the Penderecki String Quartet, Joni NehRita, Derek Hines, Laura Angelade, and many others. They are a popular local group at Waterloo’s Jazz Room playing to sold out shows annually.
