Fay Victor Performs at Avant Jazz

The Fay Victor Ensemble (Fay Victor - voice, Anders Nilsson - electric guitar, Ken Filiano - acoustic bass, effects, Michael 'TA' Thompson - drums, percussion) will appear at Location/One Roulette as part of the Avant Jazz: Still Moving Festival on Saturday, April 28, 2007. The Fay Victor Ensemble is a voice-guitar-bass-drum unit performing original material that mostly provides structure for free improvisational flight; each member contributing equally to proceedings.

The band's first recording, Cartwheels Through the Cosmos, was released in January 2007 on the ArtistShare label. It is an ambitious and adventurous project that oversteps and redefines the boundaries of what a jazz-singer is. It combines the thoughtfulness of observant lyric-writing, the excitement of improvising, and the structure of solid composing, captivating the listener with cinematic, story-driven pieces.
