Daniel Mandrychenko and Dann Zinn

Daniel Mandrychenko and Dann Zinn bring together their distinct musical paths for a night of original compositions that weave jazz, funk, indie rock, and avant-garde influences into something genuinely fresh. Mandrychenko, a multi-genre guitarist with a masters from Cal State Long Beach, has shared stages with jazz heavyweights like Dave Liebman and Charles McPherson, while Zinn's saxophone work draws from a lifetime spent absorbing everything from Tower of Power's hard funk to collaborations with Joe Henderson and Freddie Hubbard. This is adventurous, boundary-crossing music from two musicians who take the jazz tradition seriously and then push it somewhere unexpected.
