Club d'Elf with John Medeski

Bassist Mike Rivard likens his Boston ensemble, Club d'Elf, to Charles Mingus's volatile jazz workshops; the roaring avant-funk of electric-era Miles, the legato drift of the Grateful Dead, manic Berber bop and hypnotic gnawa all find a place in the mix. Tonight Rivard welcomes frequent guest keyboardist John Medeski as the troupe celebrates its latest, Electric Morocco-land/So Below.
