About this concert
Phillip Greenlief/Nels Cline/Scott Amendola Trio: Phillip and Scott are celebrating the release of “Stay With It”, out on Clean Feed Records. Phillip introduced Scott to Nels back in 1994 when they played Nels’ legendary New Music Monday series at the now defunct Alligator Lounge in Los Angeles. That meeting eventually led to the forming of The Nels Cline Singers in 2001. With Phillip relocating to Maine this coming June, we’re excited to reunite the 3 stellar musicians for a very special send off. Two sets of sonic exploration by 3 masters of improvisation. Not to be missed!
