Live at KUVO: Rhythm Future Quartet | June 11

Rhythm Future Quartet -  a group of young New York jazz virtuosos  specializing in the Django Reinhardt/ Stephane Grappelli tradition – will perform live at the KUVO studio June 11 at 4 PM.

The group is stopping by KUVO on their way to perform at the Colorado Gypsy Jazz Festival June 12 at the Holiday Event Center.

Named after a Django Reinhardt tune, the Rhythm Future Quartet performs dynamic and fiery arrangements of Gypsy jazz standards and original compositions that draw from rhythms heard around the world.

Jason Anick and Olli Soikkeli, front-men and lead soloists of the group, have received critical acclaim this past year and are considered ‘rising stars’ in the world of Jazz and Gypsy Jazz.

Olli Soikkeli, who recently made the move from his home country of Finland to New York City, is rapidly becoming a top call guitarist in the bustling Brooklyn jazz scene and has been aptly coined “the Finnish boy wonder”.

Jason Anick, an award winning composer, is one of the youngest professors at the esteemed Berklee College of Music in Boston.

For their debut self-titled album, the Rhythm Future Quartet decided to re-visit and record classic jazz and Gypsy jazz favorites. Through their intricate and creative arrangements, they have brought new life to songs like “Night and Day” and “Summertime.”

Line-up:  Olli Soikkeli lead guitar, Jason Anick violin, Ivan Pena rhythm guitar, Greg Loughman bass
