The Westerlies

The Sanctuary

Celebrated trumpet/trombone quartet and rising stars of the chamber music world, The Westerlies, embark on a two week long west coast tour in support of their forthcoming sophomore album. The Westerlies will perform in Arcata at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 20th at The Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is located at 1301 J Street Arcata, CA 95521. Admission is $5 - $20 suggested donation. The Westerlies (“prevailing winds from the West to the East”) are a New York based brass quartet comprised of four childhood friends from Seattle, Washington: Riley Mulherkar and Zubin Hensler on trumpet, and Andy Clausen and Willem de Koch on trombone. “Skilled interpreters who are also adept improvisers” (NPR’s Fresh Air), The Westerlies explore jazz, roots, and chamber music influences to create the rarest of hybrids: music that is both “folk-like and composerly, lovely and intellectually rigorous” (NPR Music). Since their inception in 2011, they have shared the stage with such diverse acts as Radiolab, Bill Frisell, Vieux Farka Toure, and Juilliard Dance. Equally at home in concert halls and living rooms, The Westerlies navigate a wide array of venues with the precision of a string quartet, the audacity of a rock band, and the charm of a family sing-along.
