MAX JOHNSON & SAM NEWSOME

The duo of soprano saxophone legend Sam Newsome and double bass virtuoso Max Johnson is a whirlwind of wild sound. Combining their musically diverse backgrounds, these two master improvisers weave a sonic landscape that traverses from beautiful singing melodies to electronic-like drones, psychedelic blasts to the quiet rustling of leaves, all with the sounds of a soprano saxophone and double bass. Come hear these two music makers create an orchestra of sound, as they celebrate the release of their 2024 debut release as a duo, “Tubes”, on the Unbroken Sounds label.

“Newsome expands the sound of a single soprano into a one-man band.” (Mark Corroto, All About Jazz)
