JAKE BALDWIN’S (final) OCTOBER RESIDENCY NIGHT featuring:

CORY HEALEY’S BEAUTIFUL SUNSHINE BAND

Cory Healey’s unique drumming has led to collaborations with artists from many different genres. He has toured North America and Europe and had the privilege of performing with Kenny Wheeler, Dr Lonnie Smith, John Abercrombie, and David Berkman. While living in Chicago, he performed and recorded with Algernon, Fareed Haque’s Flat EarthEnsemble, W.W. Lowman, Ike Riley, and Scott Hesse. In 2013, Healey moved to the Minneapolis, where he’s worked with some of the Twin Cities’ most prominent artists including Dead Man Winter, Dosh, Marijuana Deathsquads, and Anthony Cox. Healey leads The Beautiful Sunshine Band which features Erik Fratzke (bass), Jake Baldwin (trumpet), and Zacc Harris (guitar). The music traverses bebop, free jazz, ambient, and doom metal.

Cory Healey’s Beautiful Sunshine Band was formed in 2014 and consists of Twin Cities jazz-scene heavyweights Erik Fratzke on bass, Jake Baldwin on trumpet, Noah Ophoven-Baldwin on cornet, Zacc Harris on guitar, and Healey on drums and compositions. The music that The

Beautiful Sunshine Band plays draws from Be Bop, Free Jazz, Ambient Music, and Doom Metal. Their debut record, Beautiful Sunshine, was released by Shifting Paradigm Records in March 2016.

"Artfully divergent... Healey’s Beautiful Sunshine Band go almost everywhere in Healey’s debut album, from straight bop to abstract jazz to post-rock to shades of metal, and they often mix it all up for a fresh, unpredictable cocktail." -Something Else! Reviews

"Healey (has a) drive and predilection for creatively slopping up the groove with off-kilter accents and unexpected tom explosions, but it’s his melodic sensibilities that set him apart, whether he’s adapting the bouncy, joyful lyricism of Ornette Coleman on “Ubiquitous Condiments,” tapping into classic bebop on his “Aragon,” or pushing a moody, overdriven noir vibe on “Omens.”" - Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader
