Bio
Humans Being is a Chicago based ensemble that performs jazz music while drawing influences from a myriad of genres and concepts. The group serves as a platform for composer/percussionist Michael Sommer to present his original music, as well as his take on standard jazz repertoire. Along with tenor saxophonist Matt Cashdollar, Guitarist Mike Vanier, and Bassist Jeremy Schmidt, Michael created a CD in early November 2009, giving a formal start to the project. The primary purpose of the group is to entertain a wide variety of audiences with music that is classic and contemporary, explosive and driving, profound and agile, and just downright soulful! Humans Being works to preserve the legacy of jazz music while simultaneously pushing it forward in pursuit of music that is relevant and more relatable to modern audiences.
