The Keith Price Double Quartet – Double Quartet
When you’re talking about a band whose last project was a completely deconstructed version of one of cinema’s most iconic soundtracks (The Good, The Bad & The Ugly), you know his next release will be something equally adventurous. In 2017, guitar wizard Keith Price assembled an all-star crew of local jazz instrumentalists for his double quartet, and created a powerful record that will burrow into your brain more and more with every listen.
The five tracks (three of which exceed 10 minutes in length) showcase the subtlety and versatility of the players, centred around a driving, improvisational groove. The band performed this material live at indie festivals and alongside bands of genres other than jazz last year. The group’s rock and electronic influences have given it an interesting appeal within the broader Winnipeg music scene.

Keith Price
Double Quartet (Indie)
Winnipeg guitarist Keith Price has a new album set for release later this month as he prepares for an appearance at the Jazz Festival. Keith is a hugely talented guitarist and composer who has had some great releases — like music for a well-known spaghetti western.
His double-quartet concept here is very cool and is made up of Keith on guitar, Neil Watson alto, Dallas and Jeff Presslaff on keyboards, Julian Bradford and Marty Thiessen on basses and Jaime Carrasco and Kevin Waters on drums.
Keith’s music is frequently rock influenced and funky with a typical driving rhythmic base setting up the solos. There are times when the effect is relentlessly hypnotic, a feature I have always enjoyed in his music. Check out Grunge as an example. His music builds throughout the pieces, with hints of electric Miles. I feel that, at times, Keith flies under the radar here at home, which is a shame. In a blindfold test, his albums could hold up well with releases from anywhere in the world. The Double Quartet will be at the Rachel Browne Theatre on June 24 if you want to see them live, and the album will be released June 23. Keith is a big asset in our local jazz world. ★★★★ out of five

Epp will enlist the skills of her bandmates, Keith Price (guitar), Julian Bradford (bass), and Daniel Roa (drums and vocals), who all have experience composing, arranging, and interpreting songs by Canadians. Each band member will also bring an original they are proud of, something they hope to be remembered by, their contribution to Canada’s incredible artistic tradition. This concert allows these musicians to carry the torch for Canadian ingenuity in the arts, right here in Manitoba.
Nu Sounds is about bold ideas and daring creative pursuits. The results have always been incredible and have delighted, engaged, and challenged the audiences. Jazz Winnipeg is delighted to be presenting this series for 2017 with support from the Manitoba Arts Council, Manitoba Music, and UMFM.
