The Jazz Philanthropists Union presents…
Russian Telegraph
Beth Custer – clarinet, voice
David James – guitar, voice
Diana Mangano- voice
Chris Grady – trumpet
Jordan Glasgow – keyboards
Keith McArthur – bass
John Hanes – drums
The brainchild of Beth Custer (Trance Mission, Club Foot Orchestra) and David James (Afrofunk Experience, Spearhead, The Coup), who had the inspiration to merge a couple of their separate bands into one. It’s a blend of Beth Custer Ensemble, with their Art Song, their clarinets, and their trumpet; David James’s GPS, with it’s quixotically “political†instrumentals; mixed with a dose of Curtis Bumpy’s uniquely funky bass and soulful keyboards.
RT plays music from the catalogues of each of these entities, along with originals written expressly for this group, and choice covers of music from composers ranging from Nelson Cavaquinho to Chris Cornell.
