Now's the Time: Dave Douglas

Dave Douglas, one of the most creative and compelling figures in jazz, appears with his group Keystone at The Blue Room on Friday, October 8. Although his most recent project is the Frankenstein-inspired Spark of Being, the music Douglas will perform in Kansas City probably sounds more like this. The soulful rendition of Rufus Wainwright's "This Love Affair" embedded above is indicative of Douglas' expansive aesthetic. Curious listeners are also encouraged to investigate Douglas' Greenleaf Music blog.
