1st Sunday Concert with the Rob Thorsen Quartet

Sunday, July 3, 2022 at 2 PM
Encinitas Library
Free

The award winning Rob Thorsen Quartet will perform a variety of music which includes jazz, latin music, original compositions and more. The band includes bassist Rob Thorsen, pianist Alexander Anderson, vibraphonist Matt DiBiase and drummer Richard Sellers. Together they integrate many different music styles that contribute to their modern jazz sound. From Duke Ellington to Wayne Shorter and Miles Davis, the trio weaves together a unique sound that honors the jazz masters while inspiring a fresh approach to this great American art form.

Bassist Rob Thorsen maintains a diverse and busy schedule in Southern California as a performer, educator, clinician and composer. After playing classical guitar, flute, saxophones, tuba and electric bass as a youth, he found his true voice in the upright bass. “When I began playing upright bass, the fact that I felt the sound as much as heard it had a profound effect on me. I was hooked for life.”

A San Diego based musician, vibraphonist Matt DiBiase has performed his original music on multiple tours in the U.S. as well as internationally in Europe and the Middle East.

California native Alexander Anderson is a forward-thinking pianist, keyboardist, composer, and arranger with a bent toward mixing 70s-influenced jazz and fusion with hip-hop and R&B. Alexander has multiple record releases to his credit and is also a prolific composer and arranger.

Richard Sellers has been playing drums with countless groups and ensembles in a variety of styles, including straight-ahead jazz, avant-garde jazz, Brazilian, Latin, funk and hip-hop. Richard recorded with the Internationally acclaimed Mike Wofford/ Holly Hofmann quintet for their 2014 release “Turn Signal”
