Josh Sinton + Jeb Bishop
Though they’ve been friends for many decades, Josh Sinton (baritone sax) and Jeb Bishop (trombone) didn’t play together until 2015 when they both performed in Tobias Klein’s little big band Spinifex Maximus. Since that time, they’ve been developing a unique approach to duo playing rooted both in their shared love of bass frequencies as well as the breadth and depth of the past 60 years of creative music. They’re touring throughout New England this Fall in preparation for their first recording as a duo. They’re incredibly excited to bring music to the good folks of Kittery and can’t wait to hear what sounds will transpire on Sep. 29th!
