Drummer Andy Gagnon and multi-instrumentalist Kyle Saulnier join forces as The Mischievists, stirring up groove-forward, jazz-adjacent chaos in this ongoing concert series featuring a stellar crew of fellow music educators/exceptional performers. Bold, spontaneous, and a little mischievous—this is improvised music that plays hard and colors way outside the lines.
