Westchester Collaborative Theater Presents Five-Piece Jazz Band Les Hommes De Cave

On Saturday, June 2, Les Hommes de Cave, a five-piece, edgy jazz band featuring Ann Gulian as lead vocalist will perform in Westchester Collaborative Theater (WCT)'s Jazz Masters Series. Les Hommes de Cave performs mainstream jazz that mixes classic standards with influences from Haiti, Brazil and American R&B and explores a broad range of music through the lens of be-bop and post be-bop traditions. The members are Philippe Charles on bass; Graham Gulian on drums; Rik Kaufman on piano; Jeremy Kattell on Sax; and Dan Williams on trombone, featuring singer extraordinaire Ann Gulian who recently joined the group as lead vocalist, expanding its repertoire to include selections from jazz and pop songbooks. Ann Gulian is also a much-lauded actor well-known to local audiences and a member of WCT.

Les Hommes de Cave will play sets at 7:30 and 9:00 pm. General admission is $20. Cash bar and refreshments are available. Purchase seats online at the ticketing website: https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3380859 (limited seating available.)

Since its opening last year, the WCT black box performance space has become increasingly known as a venue showcasing WCT plays and readings, as well as live music and a variety of performance artists. For upcoming theater and music events visit http://www.wctheater.org/

About Les Hommes de Cave
The core rhythm section was known to be one of the most popular groups at the now defunct One Station Plaza performance space in Peekskill in the late 90's. While Charles, Graham Gulian and Kaufman first performed together in the 1970s and developed a loyal following known at numerous local venues, the group expanded in 2005, and now explores an even broader range of music.
