Chaotic Good Jazz

The 2026 @montavillajazzfest was an absolute blast!

I had the opportunity to sit down ahead of the festival and chat with @brandonleecierley @domobranch and @losteele , if you missed it... you can catch past broadcasts available on demand via MixCloud (link in bio).

Some more highlights from this year's festival included @dat.bari.sax / @wenipt , @rebeccasanborn and the @portlandjazzcomposers ensemble 'Shadow Work' album release show, a pair of multisensory performances from @northpolepdx and @and.or_you + @mosleywotta . @de_dae_day The Collective left a "melody in my soul" (courtesy of @davasate_jr ) that I can't stop thinking about.

🎺 @simpsonaire always puts on a show, and I was lucky enough to see him perform with 4 different groups over the weekend.

Montavilla Jazz has become one of my favorite local events and this year was the best year yet! Let's do it again Labor Day weekend 2027!
