Iris Ornig Quartet Plays ShapeShifter Lab Tonight

Iris Ornig Quartet will perform tonight, December 4th at 8:15PM at the ShapeShifter Lab, 18 Whitwell Place, Brooklyn, NY 111215.

Bassist & composer Iris Ornig is one of the most original female voices on today's New York jazz scene. Since her arrival in New York City in 2003, she had played with an amazing roster of the most influential contemporary jazz musicians in NYC including Gretchen Parlato, Ambrose Akinmusire, Joel Frahm, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Mike Rodriguez, Rebecca Martin, Allison Miller, Sachal Vasandani, Helen Sung, Marcus Gimore, Dan Tepfer and many others.

Ornig's music highlights all the members - Josh Deutsch on trumpet, Nir Felder on guitar and Ronen Itzik on drums- in a mixed program of straight ahead and contemporary jazz originals and well-chosen pop covers. Ornig's compositions are strikingly fresh, original and of the moment.

Her latest CD, "No Restrictions", features Kurt Rosenwinkel, Mike Rodriguez, Helen Sung and Marcus Gilmore. The recording has earned extremely positive reviews from Downbeat, Jazziz, All About Jazz, and The New York City Jazz Record, just to name a few.
