The Band

From the first sounds to the last chord, Story City takes you on a musical journey that is as distinctive as it is artistic. Prepare to experience a band that will remind you Music is melodic, vibrant, and complex at the same time. In this decidedly American Classical/Jazz genre, there is a reason not many groups attempt its performance. In three words: it's incredibly difficult.

Story City was put together to explore the music of jazz guitarist Pat Metheny and the late saxophone great Michael Brecker. The ensemble has now expanded its reach to include the Yellowjackets and most importantly, original compositions all their own. A wide variety of musical styles has been pursued by these composers in their conscious effort to promote, advance, and develop original musical voices. The music is so complex that its performance takes an incredible commitment and technique in its execution. Each member of the group was chosen because they posses this level of dedication to their instrument and to the music. Specifically through this perspective, Story City ushers in its own new thoughts, ideas, and concepts to this ever-changing musical force we know as JAZZ.
