Chorum Hall is pleased to present the Quinn Sternberg (bass) Quintet featuring Sam Taylor (sax), Nahum Zdybel (guitar), Seth Finch (Keys) and Peter Varnado (drums. Quinn Sternberg is a New Orleans bassist, composer, and bandleader originally from Bloomington, Indiana. His three albums “Weird World,” “Mind Beach,” and “Cicada Songs” draw influence from Quinn’s Midwest musical upbringing, his new home in New Orleans, and contemporary musical elements. The result is a fresh perspective on the Jazz tradition that is simultaneously melodic and groovy, “complex but digestible” (Down Beat Magazine), and soulful while highly interactive. Quinn’s band, featuring some of New Orleans’ finest musicians, has wowed audiences at venues ranging from listening rooms, to rock clubs, to festival stages with their intense live energy.
