On Wednesday, December 19th, Bassist / Composer Damon Banks (and key member of SoSaLa) unleashes his new project entitled “Travelguides” – a collective that blurs the lines between world, experimental and cinematic music. This evolving project reflects the sights and sounds of Damon’s experiences traveling the world as a professional musician. Some of his colleagues call this music “the street corner where world, jazz and free improvisation meet … and fall in love” or better yet “a fresh approach to multi-media where compelling visuals and beautiful melodies connect with intense periods of group improvisation” …

This debut performance at THE STONE NYC will feature songs from his upcoming CD by the same name. Joining him will be some of New York City’s creative elite: Graham Haynes (cornet), Manu Koch (keyboards), Brian Prunka (guitar, oud) and Bruce Cox (drums).
