Tonight, September 7, Roulette opens the Fall 2012 season with the highly acclaimed Mary Halvorson Septet. Featuring Jonathan Finlayson (trumpet), Jon Irabagon (alto saxophone), Ingrid Laubrock (tenor saxophone), Jacob Garchik (trombone), Mary Halvorson (guitar), John Hébert (bass) & Ches Smith (drums) the evening's performance will feature brand new material.
