Detour: Jazz at 2nd Street Theater

Detour:Jazz is bringing their own special sound to 2nd Street Theater for one night, Saturday, July 25 at 8pm.  Detour:Jazz is a Central Oregon based jazz quartet playing standards, their own twist on “pop” classics and some original music; anything from straight-ahead, bossa to blues.  Originally an off-shoot of a soul band, Detour:Jazz was formed in December of 2006.   

David Finch, one of the founding members, has been playing solo piano, jazz and smooth jazz since college.  He has played with Wynton Marsalis, Tom Grant, The Crazy 8’s, Patrick Lamb, Dan Balmer, Norman Sylvester, Jay “Bird” Koder, Andy Stokes and more.  James Hutchens is also a founding member, a venerable and ecclectic guitarist adding his unique touch of blues, contemporary jazz and rock.  Percussionist Vinnie Overland recently joined the group in 2008.

He is an Oregon native who has played in concert, marching and Scottish bagpipe bands as well as country, jazz and rock groups.  Trumpet player Casey Terada joined in October of 2007.  He is an experienced big band trumpet section leader who has played with Betty Berger Big Band and the COCC Big Band.
