A List 2/14/05 ADAM LANE JAZZ TRIO PERFORMING AT SLU CANTON – The Adam Lane Jazz Trio will perform at St. Lawrence University on Wednesday, February 23, in the Laurentian Room of the Student Center, at 8 p.m. The performance, supported by the Birdsong Endowment, is open to the public, free of charge. Combining a variety of disparate influences, bassist and composer Lane stretches the terms "jazz" and "chamber music" beyond convention. His blend of music and performance art takes listeners on a meticulously orchestrated joyride, with horns, strings, electronics, spoken word and the occasional vacuum cleaner. Also in the trio are multi-reed artist Vinny Golia and drummer Vijay Anderson. According to Lane, "We play a free swing, hard bop, avant swing similar to Mingus and Ellington on the Money Jungle record, but with a bit more of a modern feel."
