About the event
The Electric Squeezebox Orchestra returns to Hardymon Hall for its monthly Jazzschool residency, with saxophonist Marcus Stephens leading the band for this special July 12 performance.
This 17-piece Bay Area big band brings together a powerhouse lineup of local players, composers, and arrangers for an evening of bold, modern large ensemble music. Expect original charts, deep grooves, sharp solos, and the kind of bandstand chemistry that only happens when some of the Bay’s finest musicians are in the room together.
