About this concert
NOLATETEverybody knows about New Orleans rich musical tradition but an even more deeply rooted tradition in the Crescent City is one of perpetual reinvention. Its a city thats been reborn countless times over the course of its multi-cultural history, a legacy vibrantly reflected in its music: Nolatet features some of New Orleans key jazz musicians: Contemporary drummer extraordinaire Johnny Vidacovichs long resum includes playing with New Orleans legends Professor Longhair and James Booker in the 1970s and 80s. While also a staple in citys funk scene, he is perhaps best known as one of the founding members of the modern jazz quartet Astral Project, the band that, after 35 years, is still going strong. Pianist Brian Haas is one of the founding members of the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, whos modern music has blended jazz, rock, and funk for the past 20 years. Mike Dillon is an experimental vibraphonist and percussionist known for his work in Garage-A-Trois, Les Claypools Fancy Band and Critters Buggin. Composer, bassist, bandleader and multi-instrumentalist James Singleton presents true modern experimental jazz that also draws from rock and orchestral roots. A real powerhouse of improvisers, each a respected player in their own right, Nolatet is a force of nature to experience live. Nolatet and its members were nominated for 6 OffBeat Magazine Best of the Beat Awards in 2016: Best Contemporary Jazz Artist, Best Contemporary Jazz Album for Dogs, Best Vibraphonist, Best Drummer, and Best Bassist.

NOLATET Biography
Nolatet: No Revenge Necessary Out April 27, 2018 on RPF.
Everybody knows about New Orleans’ rich musical tradition—but an even more deeply rooted tradition in the Crescent City is one of perpetual reinvention. It’s a city that’s been reborn countless times over the course of its multi-cultural history, a legacy vibrantly reflected in its music.
With the release of their debut album, Dogs, in 2016, the Nolatet – vibraphonist Mike Dillon, pianist Brian Haas, bassist James Singleton and drummer Johnny Vidacovich – added their own new twist to the New Orleans tradition. Now the quartet returns with their much-anticipated follow-up, ‘No Revenge Necessary,’ which takes the music through as many winding turns and colorful pathways as a Second Line parade route.
“‘Dogs’ was beginner’s luck,” says Singleton. “We had just started as a band, and we managed to somehow pull together a cohesive program. To me that small miracle was a good omen for the future.”
That omen proves true in myriad ways on ‘No Revenge Necessary,’ released via Royal Potato Family, which finds the band getting alternately (and often simultaneously) funky and ferocious, playful and profound, high-spirited and movingly solemn, irreverent, iconoclastic, and tapped into the bloodline that flows through the veins of every New Orleans musician.
