27-year-old Tomin Perea-Chamblee is a brass and reed-centered multi-instrumentalist, the composer and arranger of pieces with excellently thorny harmonies, an at-times reluctant musicker and enthusiastic Brooklynite (born and raised, so his admiration primarily concerns the borough’s pre-gentrification qualities), who, by day works as a bioinformatician. If you're in New York, there’s an OK chance that you’ve heard him play before, with young (jazz-adjacent) bands and musicians of some renown.
King Hippo, aka Alejandro Ayala of International Anthem Recording Company, will be spinning jazz and jazz-adjacent records from his vast collection of vinyl. Expect to hear both new and old music, as well as some test presses for upcoming releases on IARC.
