The sound of gypsy jazz comes alive through the music of Rhythm Future Quartet. Named after a tune by gypsy jazz legend Django Reinhardt, the band was formed by violinist Jason Anick. You’ll hear a blend of jazz standards and original compositions during the Freeport performance.

It may sound a bit out of left field, but what Weird Phishes is doing sure is interesting. The band plays the songs of British rock band Radiohead in the style of American jam band Phish. With solid musicianship and a commitment to putting on jam-heavy, dance-inducing shows, Weird Phishes makes it work. If you’re a fan of either band or are just curious, give this show a try.
