Jazz Mafia Tuesdays feat. The Realistic Orchestra
Realistic Orchestra is composed of many of the San Francisco Bay Area's finest musicians. Collectively, their studio and live credits read everywhere from Ratdog and Santana to Zion:I and Lyrics Born. The band has performed live at many of the Bay's top music venues and festivals such as; Elbo Room, The Independent, Jazz at Pearl's, The Mystic Theater, SF Jazz Festival, San Jose Jazz Festival, Fillmore Jazz Festival and North Beach Jazz Fest.
The instrumentation of Realistic Orchestra is based on a century old classic ensemble known as the "Big Band" or "Jazz Orchestra" which includes 13 horns and a rhythm section of drums, upright bass and keyboards. adding to this foundation is guitar, electric bass, electonics, guest DJs, guest vocalists and the one and only Dublin (The shotgun Wedding Quintet) who's collaborations with the band are unlike any other Hip:Hop on the planet. These elements, combined with modern electronic influenced grooves, epic arrangements and cutting:edge jazz improvisation, create the distinct and unmistakeable sound of the Realistic Orchestra.
"Their big band style and monstrous horn section blew the crowd away... The Jazz Mafia's Realistic Orchestra shows that different genres of music can work in partnership to create an auditory experience that's as pleasing as it is exciting. Openness and rejection of labels is the lifeblood of their eclectic collaboration and it could be the answer for those seeking to push the limits of their own musical exploration." -Performer Magazine, Oct 2009
