Andromeda Turre is a vocalist and composer whose work blends the rich traditions of jazz with bold contemporary narratives. The daughter of trombonist Steve Turre and cellist Akua Dixon, Turre was raised in New York City and immersed in the artistry of such legends as Dizzy Gillespie, Ray Charles, and Wynton Marsalis. Educated at the Boston Conservatory and Berklee College of Music, Turre draws on classical, contemporary, and theatrical influences to create a singular voice in jazz. Her latest project, From the Earth, is a groundbreaking jazz suite addressing environmental justice and the impact of climate change on marginalized communities. With a career spanning performances in 17 countries and compositions for film, television, video games, and theater, Turre continues to push boundaries, using music as a powerful tool for empathy and transformation.

Hear a quartet led by “one of the most distinctive guitarists to come along in recent years” (The Village Voice ). Dave Stryker is known for his “golden tone, urgent style, and the kind of heated technique that can blow the roof off any gig” (Jazz Times ).

Stryker has also performed with Freddie Hubbard, James Moody, Dizzy Gillespie, Jimmy Smith, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and many others.
