Ryan Sands Trio Joins The Jazz Series At The Milford Arts Council

The Milford Arts Council has announced the Ryan Sands Trio will be performing at the MAC on March 3, 2023 at 8:00 p.m.

A native of Orange, CT, drummer Ryan Sands is an alum of the New England Conservatory and Manhattan School of Music. A "passionate, energetic drummer on the rise," Sands and his power trio recently recorded their debut album "Standing on the Edge of Tomorrow." Sands also currently holds the drum seat for the New York-based Jazz collective Altus, featuring David Adewumi, Neta Ranaan, Nathan Reising, and Isaac Levien. They released their debut EP, Riot Cycles, in July 2021.

Tickets for Ryan Sands Trio are available now, ranging from $43 - $63. The MAC is fully ADA accessible, but please don't hesitate to contact the box office for any specific arrangements. Concessions will be available to purchase in the Speakeasy in the MAC lobby before and during the performance. Outside food and drinks are not permitted.

To listen to Ryan Sands Trio debut album, you can listen to a preview on the MAC website or purchase the full album on Bandcamp. His music evokes a 1960s/70s nostalgia, reminiscent of the works of Mulatu Atstake and current groups like Hiatus Kaiyote and the Menahan Street Band. Sand's music is both modern, inspired, and filled with an emotional depth only found in those deeply dedicated to the craft.
