This concert will feature his latest project, which he’s really excited about. “The Next Step” is a series of compositions chronicling his family's harrowing journey from LA to Tulsa at the dawn of the pandemic during the height of tornado season, with a seven-month old, three cats, and all of their Earthly belongings in tow. Nick remains a creative force on the LA jazz scene – a distinction he’s held for 15+ years and running. Nick Mancini – vibraphone Josh Nelson - piano Jake Leckie - bass Kevin van den Elzen - drums
