Trombonist/Composer/Arranger Jacob Garchik comes to the Iowa City Jazz Festival this year with Ye Olde featuring a collective of Brooklyn Avant Guitarists, Mary Halvorson, Brandon Seabrook, and Jonathan Goldberger, Plus Drummer Vinnie Sperrazza. 

Named a “Rising Star” in the 2013 Downbeat Jazz Critic’s Poll, Garchik provides a vital role in the music scene of Brooklyn and downtown NYC. Ye Olde explores the progressive rock influences and the arts that Brooklyn has not seen.

Ye Olde performs on the main stage on Saturday, July 1st at 5pm.
