Wednesday, June 20 2018
9:00 PM-10:30 PM
Five-time GRAMMY nominee and singularly talented pianist Christian Sands will take the stage of Faena Theater on June 20 for a spectacular performance as part of Faena’s second annual Summer Jazz Series, hosted by legendary percussionist Sammy Figueroa.
Influenced by a range of musical styles, from Afro-Cuban rhythms and hip-hop beats, to jazz and dirty blues, Christian Sands will perform tracks from his debut Mack Avenue Records album, “REACH,” an original recording co-produced by GRAMMY Award-winning producer Al Pryor and famed bassist Christian McBride.
Slated to become a household name among jazz artists and enthusiasts alike, Christian Sands will tell his personal story of self-discovery and the exploration of new musical territory for a night of truly immersive jazz performances.
Faena Theater’s Summer Jazz Series is a five-month music event curated by GRAMMY-nominated producer Rachel Faro and hosted by legendary percussionist and fellow GRAMMY nominee, Sammy Figueroa, with support from WDNA 99.9FM Radio. Among the many spectacular artists of this seasonal series are GRAMMY nominees Jazzmeia Horn and Sammy Figueroa, award-winning jazz guitarist and vocalist Allan Harris, and the prodigious pianist, Matthew Whitaker.
