Our guest artist, Saxophonist improviser and composer Andy Voelker, has been aptly called a Lifer in the world of jazz. His dedication to the roots of jazz, the real time application of past and present jazz styles, and the furthering of jazz as an art form remain Andys top priorities. Having grown up on the New Jersey shore surrounded by a family full of music lovers, artists, and writers Andy developed early appreciation for what is good music.

Andy was a pivotal member of the Matt Murphys Music in Brookline having both co-lead the weekly jam session and lead his own original groups at Matts - during the heyday of one of Bostons most notable music scenes. Presently Andy is playing regularly at The Mad Monkfish and is playing and recording with Clear Audience  a group he co-leads with his cohorts from the Murphys days.

He has released his second CD as a leader, Fair Weather, with Cameron Brown. This follows is first CD, The Harvey Diamond Trio. Cameron Brown says of Harvey, "Harvey Diamond is a unique and brilliant musician: a pianist's pianist with a remarkable touch, unimpeachable technique and enormous dynamic range. A creative and unpredictable improvisor, Harvey's roots go back to Lennie Tristano and Bill Evans, spiced with just a touch of Cecil Taylor. He draws the audience into his world and holds it spellbound."
