Under the leadership of JUNO-nom
inated and 10x Global Music Award–winning jazz pianist NICK MACLEAN, SNAGGL
E feat the ALI BROS launches into a daring new chapter: a suite of electrif
ying works inspired by the science fiction grandmaster ISAAC ASIMOV and his
legendary FOUNDATION saga. Often described as “Canada’s answer to Snarky P
uppy”, the band goes interstellar using their fearless sound, likened to a
cross between electric-era Miles Davis and Rage Against the Machine, to map
the rise and fall of galactic empires.
Front and center are the ALI BROS, the near-telepathic horn duo of BROWNMAN ALI (Guru, Jay-Z, Randy Brec ker) on trumpet and MARCUS ALI (Matt Dusk, Jason Wilson, Mr Something Somet hing) on saxophone. Like Asimov’s psychohistorians, they shape the future w ith every phrase, weaving complex probabilities into sonic reality. Joining them on this voyage are some of Toronto’s finest electric-jazz explorers: JAY YOO on guitar, MATT GRUEBNER on bass, and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums. With performances swinging from Seldon–like moments of quiet, calculated clarit y to cataclysmic bursts of energy worthy of a crumbling empire... Snaggle’s new repertoire doesn’t just pay homage to ASIMOV, it channels the spirit o f his storytelling: daring, complex, and endlessly imaginative.
DOC ROCK & the ASSASSINS, the special guest opener, has carved out a reputa tion as one of Durham Region’s hardest-hitting rock outfits. Blending the g rit of classic rock with the energy of modern alternative, the band deliver s a live show that is as raw and powerful as it is unforgettable. With deep roots in the local scene, Doc Rock & the Assassins have become a fixtu re in Ontario venues, sharing stages with a wide range of rock, metal, and alternative acts. Their sound channels the spirit of no-nonsense rock & roll while embracing the high-octane edge that defines Oshawa’s music comm unity.
For fans of Jazz, Science Fiction, and the BOUNDLESS possibili
ties that emerge when the two intertwine... this is a show not to be missed
