“An arty quartet… mixing ideas from jazz, new classical, and Appalachian folk” The New York Times

The Westerlies’ bold sound has always defied category and expectation. With warmth, precision, and a sense of adventure, the New York based brass quartet performs original works and inventive arrangements that span genres and traditions. From Carnegie Hall to Coachella, The Westerlies navigate a vast creative landscape with the precision of a string quartet and the audacity of a rock band.. Their music evokes a space where playfulness and earnestness live side by side. Since their founding in 2011, the ensemble has released ten critically acclaimed albums and collaborated with artists across a wide musical spectrum, including Fleet Foxes, Big Red Machine, Common, and Conrad Tao. Don’t miss this genre-defying performance as The Westerlies bring our Café Nights series to a close with an improvisational blend of old and new. In a season that celebrates the power of music to awaken and enlighten, this performance strikes a resounding note.
