The result: A euphoric new jazz that honors its historical roots, pushing open the boundaries of genre to invoke a powerful sonic freedom. Comprising core members Alex Chadsey (bandleader and keys), Jeff Busch (percussion), and Farko Dosumov (bass), Duende Libre is collectively influenced by the trio’s direct connections with master musicians including Clinton Fearon, Dudley Nesbitt, Dave Hassel, Jesse Bannister, Chucho Valdés, Carlos Santana, Martha Gonzalez, Quetzal Flores, and Joe Santiago “Each member’s experiences are vital as they filter West African traditional rhythms through their own hands, voices, minds, bodies, each song as much choreography as a composition,” PopMatters wrote. “Hopeful in sound as well as in ideological foundation, [the band creates music] full of heart and historical multitudes.” Pop Matters calls it “globally-inspired jazz with dimension.” You will encounter sizzling rhythms and grooving basslines, experimental meters and irresistible melodic hooks, all aglow with the technical virtuosity earned by decades of devotion to their craft. The trio is occasioned by guest performances from award-winning chanteuse Chava Mirel (who, alongside Chadsey, joined Clinton Fearon's band in 2013) and inimitable tenor Frank Anderson. Formed by deep connections to Jewish and West African styles, the singers’ ebullient and masterful vocal techniques enrich Duende Libre’s live performance with even greater vibrancy. “To see the band live is to get a sense of the deep respect they have for each other, and the joy they take in connecting with each other and the audience” one critic wrote for Earshot. The band effectively—and uniquely—calls attention to the space between contemporary jazz traditions and broader musical influences from around the globe. Informed by a cumulative century of devoted study, they answer to this with emphatic (and euphoric) sonic interpretations that effectively enrich the collective language of jazz itself. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/seattle/band-in-seattle-duende-libre-•-smoker-dad/200029076044411 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, parties, live-music - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 25 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://tickets.venuepilot.com/e/band-in-seattle-smoker-dad-duende-libre-2025-11-11-central-saloon-seattle-b6ca4d?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=seattle-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Seattle - **state**: WA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Central Saloon - **lat**: 47.600593496108 - **long**: -122.3344639342 - **full address**: The Central Saloon, 207 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104-3460, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: The Central Saloon (https://allevents.in/org/the-central-saloon/26006170) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/ebb1f791a209f357a32e077701e2a37b62ca95d6e9cd1fd76f85a45814048997-rimg-w1200-h675-dc020605-gmir?v=1762712985 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/fcb2d232e1f13f58e88c5b44f5625456a02d623d777c51d2e98297b1846337d1-rimg-w300-h300-dc161619-gmir?v=1762712985 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 11 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** The Central Saloon, 207 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104-3460, United States - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** The Central Saloon - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** music, entertainment, parties, live-music - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Band In Seattle: Duende Libre • Smoker Dad ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "MusicEvent", "name": "Band In Seattle: Duende Libre • Smoker Dad", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/ebb1f791a209f357a32e077701e2a37b62ca95d6e9cd1fd76f85a45814048997-rimg-w1200-h675-dc020605-gmir?v=1762712985", "startDate": "2025-11-11", "url": "https://allevents.in/seattle/band-in-seattle-duende-libre-•-smoker-dad/200029076044411", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "The Central Saloon", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "207 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104-3460, United States", "addressLocality": "Seattle", "addressRegion": "WA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "47.600593496108", "longitude": "-122.3344639342" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "--- BAND IN SEATTLE SEASON 11 ---\nJoin in the live show taping and party with us for Band In Seattle Season 11!\n\n*** DUENDE LIBRE *** \n(Seattle // World / Jazz)\nhttps://duendelibre.com/\n\nSpecial Guests \n*** SMOKER DAD ***\n(Seattle // Rock) \nhttps://linktr.ee/smokerdad\n\n6pm Doors 7pm Show\n$5 Adv. $10", "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The Central Saloon", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/the-central-saloon/26006170" } ] } ] ```
