CJC's Way Out West Concert Series provides composer-performers from the Bay Area and beyondÊwith aÊTuesdayÊevening showcase for forward-looking original work in jazz and related genres. Join us weekly in Rendon Hall for Way Out West! An Evening With or Without INVISIBLE GUY (Ben Goldberg Ð clarinets, Hamir Atwal Ð drums, Michael Coleman Ð keyboards). Obfuscation, pointless tangents, and Eb meandering. ClarinetistÊBen Goldberg, pianist / keyboardistÊMichael Coleman, and drummerÊHamir AtwalÊcame together in the innovative jazz and experimental music world of the San Francisco Bay Area. Eventually they found it necessary to form this trio, which for some reason may or may not be called Invisible Guy. As a trio, Ben, Michael, and Hamir are in strict pursuit of beautiful melody. Michael Coleman says: ÒMelody is the knife that cuts through to truth. Then there is the importance of breath, and personal expression.Ó Reviewing a 2014 concert, Howard Reich of the Chicago Tribune said the group is "an unusually focused ensemble inventing a musical syntax for itself." Invisible Guy's first record,ÊKnuckle Sandwich, was released in 2017. In 2018 they composed the soundtrack for the filmÊA Sibling Mystery.
