Ben LaMar Gay Ensemble

Why go

The Chicago cornettist, singer and multi-instrumentalist plays concerts closer to happenings, mixing blues, avant-garde jazz, funk and hip hop with constant surprises. He presents his latest album Yowzers with an ensemble built around his anything-is-possible approach; Tortoise guitarist Jeff Parker has called him one of his favourite musicians on the planet. Reserved tickets are held at the box office until 30 minutes before the start.
