Buyu Ambroise & The Blues in Red Band
BAMcafé Live
Fri, Jan 30 at 9pm
Bar opens at 8pm
"Ambroise's soulful saxophone […] replaces the chant of traditional music. Through his instrument, he “chants” with deep, religious feeling. Trombone, piano and bass—in turn—improvise with sensuality. The timbral combination of tenor saxophone and trombone works every time out. Here, they're enhanced considerably by a vast array of Latin percussion and the band's rolling waves of sound."

An exuberant player with a meaty, “swaggering sound” (Ben Ratliff, New York Times), Haitian-born tenor sax player "Buyu" Ambroise appears at BAMcafé Live with The Red Band, churning out seamless mixtures of jazz and polyrhythmic Afro-Haitian folksong that ultimately capture the best of both sonic worlds.
