DAVID WEISS & POINT OF DEPARTURE
David Weiss- Trumpet
Raffi Garabedian- Tenor Sax
Ben Eunson- Guitar
Will Bernard- Guitar
Matt Clohesy- Bass
Kush Abadey- Drums
From the halcyon days of the so-called “Young Lions” era of the eighties till now, there have been a number of trumpeters who were heralded as “the next big thing” or “the second coming of…” but through all the hype, the New York-born, trumpeter, arranger, composer and bandleader David Weiss has been a light at the end of the jazz tunnel. Through his leadership of the masterful New Jazz Composers Octet and his own sextet, Weiss has shown his unfailing dedication to the illumination and expansion on the music of the marvelous sixties – from Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis to the Blue Note catalog and beyond. With his new Point of Departure quintet, he takes an even greater leap into the abyss, further blurring styles and genres.
