Kelly Craig Sextet Contact: Kelly Craig 613-851-4682 Website: | Kelly Craig Sextet The antidote for the light-footed and tepid reception of chamber Jazz, the Kelly Craig Sextet has proven to be one of the most flexible and creative Jazz projects you’ll hear. The conception the Sextet was not so much an act of want as need. Baking their own Jazz with a youthful verve was the only choice when faced with gnawing the same, tired biscuits. The Kelly Craig Sextet is a classic collection of sax, trumpet, drums, piano and bass, a rich bop monster. Made up of young players oozing a restless need to blow Jazz, the Sextet’s youthful enthusiasm infects the audience. The Sextet’s ability to produce original material with polish and ease means they can switch moods all along the Jazz spectrum. Even the most discerning Jazz aficionado will listen intently whether the Sextet is noodling the lightest Cocktail music or laying down the Heaviest Hard Bop. |
