Kasan Belgrave
Saxophonist Kasan Belgrave and his sextet play two shows on Friday, October 23, at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. at Cliff Bell's in Detroit. Expect bebop, fusion and gospel threads from the "Dual Citizen" record.
Kasan Belgrave is a rising saxophonist and bandleader, and the son of trumpeter Marcus Belgrave. His playing is energetic and his improvising sharp, drawing on early bebop and jazz with touches of fusion and gospel. He studied at the University of Michigan, held an assistantship at Michigan State, toured with Jazz at Lincoln Center under Wynton Marsalis, and has played with Karriem Riggins and Etienne Charles.
The "Dual Citizen" lineup comes out of Detroit's jazz mentorship circle: bassist Jonathan Muir-Cotton, drummer Louis Jones, pianist Brendon Davis, trumpeter Allen Dennard and Michael Abbo on trombone and bass.
There are two shows, at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. Doors open at 5 p.m. for dinner. Seating for "Dinner & a Show" begins at 6, and seating for the second show starts at 9. You can reserve a table ahead of time.
