The Story & Vibe
**Thana Alexa** – voice/loops **Marko Churnchetz** – piano/rhodes **Noam Wiesenberg** – upright/electric bass **Antonio Sánchez** – drums
Surprising is the word that perhaps best describes Grammy®-nominated vocalist, composer, producer, and jazz festival director, Thana Alexa. An extraordinarily creative force, her 2x Grammy®-nominated album ONA (self-release, 2020) was inspired by the cross-generational and cross-cultural stories of the immigrant women in her family and evolved into an exploration of the experiences of contemporary women everywhere.
Her music pushes the boundaries of genre with deep-seeded roots in jazz and overtones of alternative world music and electronic soundscapes, placing importance on social activism, mental health awareness & uplifting female voices.
**Antonio Sánchez** Four-time Grammy winner Antonio Sánchez is one of the most revered drummers, composers, and bandleaders of his generation. Renowned as a "drummer's drummer" with unparalleled melodic sensibility, he is best known for his 20-year collaboration with Pat Metheny and his groundbreaking, Oscar-nominated drumming score for *Birdman*.
Beyond jazz, Sánchez merges electronica, rock, and fusion, notably with his projects Bad Hombre and Shift, collaborating with stars like Trent Reznor, Dave Matthews, and Kimbra. He approaches the drum set as an orchestral instrument, focusing on dynamics, color, and melodic storytelling rather than just rhythm.
His band, **Migration**, releases acclaimed original music, while his recent work tackles social issues with a powerful, immersive sound. With multiple "Jazz Drummer of the Year" awards and countless high-profile credits, Sánchez continues to redefine the role of the drummer in the 21st century.
