Pony Boy All-Star Big Band w/Mordy Ferber

Friday 6/19/2026 8:00 PM

Special guest Mordy Ferber joins the Pony Boy All-Star Big Band, featuring some of his original compositions which were sparkly arranged for the full big band, and presented in last year’s release “This Is Now.” The Pony Boy All-Star Big Band is a conglomeration of the best professional musicians in the Seattle area. Led by drummer and arranger Greg Williamson, this collection of musicians is truly All-Star. The 17 members have played with The Glenn Miller Orchestra, Woody Herman’s Thundering Herd, Harry James Orchestra, Count Basie, Natalie Cole, Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, Diana Krall, Steve Allen, Ernestine Anderson... backing up Don Rickles and Joan Rivers. From New York to LA to around the world, the list goes on and on. They have pulled together an amazing library of arrangements dating back to the original swing hits of the 40’s - all the way up to today's large jazz ensemble orchestrations.

Improvising keyboardist Dave Bryant is best known for his work in Ornette Coleman's Prime Time band in the 1990's, a band that included legendary jazz/funk/avant-garde bassist Jamaaladeen Tacuma. Bryant's performance resume also notably includes Grateful Dead legend, Jerry Garcia, Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson. With Harmonic League, Bryant is reunited with Tacuma, along with drummer James Kamal Jones, saxophonists Neil Leonard and Steve Treseler, acoustic bassist King Dahl and drummer Jerry Steinhilber.

Jim Knapp's music is full of intensity, emotion and creative textures. His music should be more known. It's among the best of orchestral jazz...
MARIA SCHNEIDER

The career and music of Seattle-based composer/arranger and trumpeter James Knapp is a known and respected quantity in the inner circles of jazz music, inhabited by its musicians, bandleaders, journalists and educators. Those fortunate enough to gain awareness of the intrinsic beauty of his music place the work of his Composers and Improvisers Orchestra of the '70s-'80s and his more recent assemblage, the 13-piece Jim Knapp Orchestra, in the upper echelon of modern jazz composition.

Led by Seattle-based saxophonist Steve Treseler and Bellingham-based trumpeter Kevin Woods, In Motion Quartet releases their debut album The Grind, an adventurous set of original music exploring propulsive grooves and the avant-garde. With a nod to the chord-less groups of Ornette Coleman, Dewey Redman, and Lee Konitz, the instrumentation allows the band the freedom to stretch harmonically and melodically, while maintaining an emphasis on rhythmic interaction and improvised counterpoint. Treseler and Woods seem to communicate telepathically, with a great sense of élan, curiosity, and vitality.
