Monster: McPhee / Gartmayer / Edwards / Portugal

TDE Promotions is collaborating with London's prestigious Cafe OTO to bring this internationally renowned free jazz quartet to Birmingham and MAC. Monster features one of the greats of free jazz, Joe McPhee from the  USA, now in his 80s, but still playing with great fire and energy. 

It's a great lineup with Susan Gartmayer, a bass clarinettist from Austria  active in rock and free jazz, John Edwards, the hugely creative bass  player from the UK, and the Brazilian drummer Maria Portugal. A unique event!
