The Nathan Clevenger Group has been playing sideways-but-melodic original modern jazz in the Bay Area since 2003. The band released their debut album, The Evening Earth, in 2010 and a second album, Observatory, in 2013. The East Bay Express called the Group’s music “long-form, dreamy, sectional without being rigid, and bluesy — albeit in a non-traditional way” and critic Andrew Gilbert -- appearing on KQED -- recently named the Group a Top Local Band to Watch in 2014, opining that "(Clevenger) makes brilliant use of the many colors at his disposal." For tonight's gig, the Group welcomes guest percussionist
Jordan Glenn.
