Tickets
Join Hardcoretet as they team up with Grammy-nominated electric jazz group Kneebody at Tractor Tavern for the release of their eponymous third album. Produced with a generous grant from 4Culture, Hardcoretet is a collection of eight genre-bending original compositions that draw their inspiration from 50 years of American music. Listeners will hear the funk influences of Herbie Hancock, the rock energy of Soundgarden, and the modern jazz intricacy of Chris Potter Underground blended together by a band comprised of some of Seattle’s most active musicians.
Visit hardcoretet.bandcamp.com to hear full-length preview tracks from the upcoming record! Thank you for all of your continued support and we’ll see you at the show.

NYC-based pianist Florian Hoefner and his group are performing next Tuesday, April 1, at The Royal Room. Opening the show will be group Human Spirit, returning to the stage for the first time in 2014.
With a combined 14 albums as leaders, and appearing on dozens more as sidemen, Thomas Marriott, Mark Taylor and Matt Jorgensen have put a strong stamp on the sound of modern jazz that has come out of Seattle and Origin Records over the last decade. Dialogue, their first release under the group name Human Spirit, features 8 original compositions recorded during a sold-out, two-night run at Tula’s Jazz Club in Seattle during the 2011 Earshot Jazz Festival. Pushing the direction of the band further forward are special guests and frequent collaborators, pianist Orrin Evans and bassist Essiet Essiet.
