Merrimans' Playhouse Jazz Performance Series presents the Chris Greene Quartet

"As soon as the Chris Greene Quartet takes the stage, jazz and rock audiences alike notice something different something besides the fact that they're seated next to each other. The jazz crowd can't help but sense the charisma and electricity, not always seen in a jazz band, that emanates from the quartet even during the saxophonist's most committed solos. And those fans accustomed to the high energy and loose hi-jinks of a rock band suddenly find themselves diving deeper into improvised music than they might have thought possible. At a time when jazz continues to seek new audiences, the Chris Greene Quartet sits poised on the future's cusp. In much the way that classical composers have historically used native folk elements as the basis for their art, the CGQ uses familiar modern materials the funk and hip-hop he heard growing up as a bridge between jazz and other genres.

It's that ability to retain the jazz tradition, expanding it at the same time, that makes the Chris Greene Quartet something different on the modern jazz scene."
