Merrimans' Playhouse Jazz Performance Series presents Real Talk!
On tour from Chicago, bassist and composer Kitt Lyles leads a collective of the citys finest contemporary jazz artists in performance of the music from his 2015 release Real Talk. Real Talk is an album of original music in which Lyles explores nostalgia for his childhood home of South Carolina. Lyless stimulating originals cover a wide spectrum of moods, from difficult odd-meter tunes to gospel-infused blues vehicles. (Dan Healy, Chicago Jazz Magazine) He utilizes singable folk-inspired melodies to evoke the woods and rivers of the South, and modern jazz harmony and dynamic improvisatory drama to express the tension created by separation from those familiar landscapes and from his loved ones. Lyles compositions invite the listener to share in this internal struggle to balance the past and the present, while ultimately affirming the necessity of perseverance and transformation.
Justin Copeland (trumpet), Roy McGrath (tenor sax), Joaquin Garcia (piano), Hans Luchs (guitar), and Gustavo Cortiñas (drums) join Lyles (bass) in bringing the music to life and creating new creative moments with every audience. In collaboration with these musicians, Lyles has performed around the world including tours in North America, Latin America, and Asia, and such renowned stages as The Chicago Jazz Festival, Snug Harbor in New Orleans, Zinco Jazz Club in Mexico City, and East Shore Jazz Cafe in Beijing, China.
