About

Purple Gums - Bobby Bradford / William Roper / Francis Wong
The pocket brass band Purple Gums returns to Bird and Beckett. Featuring the legendary cornetist Bobby Bradford, tuba virtuoso William Roper, and Asian Improv aRts co-founder saxophonist Francis Wong, Purple Gums pursues the art of improvisation with whimsy, fire, and mindfulness. The music created from the pooled experience of the band’s members is a tasty gumbo of jazz, free improvisation, ragtime, classical and spoken word.
