Vega Trails
Vega Trails is a new project born during the pandemic from double-bassist and composer Milo Fitzpatrick, a founder member of Portico Quartet and features saxophonist Jordan Smart, known for his work with Mammal Hands, Sunda Arc. After listening to Charlie Haden's duet album Closeness, Fitzpatrick decided to form a duo, which led him to approach Smart, whom he greatly admired for his live performances. The duo, translating various emotional states into melodies with a diverse sonic palette, has released their debut album Tremors in the Static on Gondwana Records in May 2022. Vega Trails is a project that brings together two open-minded and communicative musicians for the first time, to tell beautiful winding stories together. This partnership of two exciting representatives of the new generation of jazz will grace the Akbank Sanat stage on October 2.
Jordan Smart: Saxophone, baritone sax, clarinet
Milo Fitzpatrick: Double bass
