presented with support from Dino’s Safe Haven Concert Series


New York based experimental saxophonist and prolific composer, Ingrid Laubrock, who pianist and Artistic Director of The Kennedy Center Jason Moran named a “true visionary,” explores “the borders between musical realms and creates multi-layered, dense and often evocative sound worlds.” She has worked with everyone from Anthony Braxton, Muhal Richards Abrams, Dave Douglas, Kenny Wheeler, Jason Moran, and Tim Berne, to William Parker, Mary Halvorson, Andy Milne, and many others. A recipient of the 2019 Herb Alpert Ragdale Prize in Music Composition and the 2021 Berklee Institute of Gender Justice Women Composers Collection Grant, she has received numerous composing commissions and is a part time faculty at The New School and Columbia University in New York. Her duo with drummer Tom Rainey, with whom she has played since 2007 and released three albums, is, as she notes, of particular importance to her as it serves as the core of many of her projects. Rainey has performed with a wide range of artists, including John Abercrombie, Tim Berne, Jane Ira Bloom, Fred Hersch, Joe Lovano, Carmen McRae and Denny Zeitlin and his expansive recording credits, along with the artistic caliber of the musicians he’s supported, place him on the A-list of drummers closely identified with the New York City modern creative jazz scene from the late ’80s onward. Dino’s Safe Haven Concert Series was created when, upon his passing in July 2021, renowned sound designer and composer-improviser and long-time New Mexico resident, J.A. Deane (“Dino”), bequeathed a generous gift of his “Safe Haven Tiny Home” to Outpost to support the work of like-minded artists. In August 2022, the first event in the series featured a performance by Theater Grottesco, with whom Dino collaborated for 25 years. $45/$40 Outpost Members & Students (No Member Passes)
