Boise Cello Collective & The Double Bass TrioTwo ensembles. One stage. Endless strings.
Experience an extraordinary night of music as The Boise Cello Collective and The Double Bass Trio share the spotlight.
The Boise Cello Collective — featuring Dr. Jake Saunders, Philip Kettler, Brian Hodges, Micah Claffey, and Stephen Mathie — blends the soulful warmth of classical tradition with the adventurous spirit of contemporary music. From Bach to Radiohead, they bring fresh interpretations and unexpected arrangements, born from their early days of busking on Boise’s streets to becoming one of Idaho’s most inventive ensembles.
The Double Bass Trio offers a fresh and unexpected voice in modern jazz, pairing two upright basses — Josh Skinner and Braun Khan — with pianist Alex Sjobeck. Their original works and creative arrangements bridge the harmonic depth of classical music with the rhythmic vitality of jazz, offering a listening experience that’s both refined and electrifying. Mentored by renowned bassist John Clayton, the trio’s music resonates with fans of both genres, merging the best of the concert hall and the jazz club.
Come for the cellos. Stay for the basses. Leave amazed.
