Moontit @ The Kendall Square Concert Series -- FREE -- Presented by Jazz Revelation Records July 12, 2007

Formed in Boston in 2006, Moontit began as a trio of friends - guitarist Mateo Lugo, bassist Daniel Wright, and drummer Alonso Zayas Bazan - exploring their creativity and musical ideas. The group recently added Matan Chapnizka on the tenor sax and Dov Manski on keyboards, conjuring up a new palette of sound that has turned Moontit into an uncommon quintet. Their world is one that anyone would enjoy being a part of, where creativity thrives and emotion drives improvisations through the spectrum of human experiences.

Jazz Revelation Records presents the 3rd Annual Kendall Square Concert Series, and is collaborating for the first time with the Institute of Contemporary Art to present Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee at the ICA. Both series offer FREE live music on Thursdays throughout the summer (complete schedule of dates and times below). Artists include Berklee student and alumni jazz, world, Latin, and r&b musicians, some of whom are featured on the new Jazz Revelation Records CD The New Old School, including Jake Hertzog, MUNDuO, Mateo Lugo, Zili Misik, Daniel Ori, Alex Terrier, and Juan Ospina.

Jazz Revelation Records (JRR), Berklee's student-run jazz record label, was formed in the spring of 2003. The label is made possible by a grant funded by the college. Under previous management, Jazz Revelation Records successfully released the compilation CDs Rebirth, Two, and Ars Nova. Under the direction of current president Michael Borgida, the label has just released its fourth album, The New Old School. For the new CD, JRR gathered eight young, passionate, and committed artists from around the world, all speaking the traditional language of jazz in a new way.

The Kendall Square Concert Series take place at 300 Athenaeum St., Kendall Square, Cambridge, every Thursday, noon to 2:00 p.m., June 7 – September 13. The Kendall Square Concert Series is sponsored by BioMed Realty Trust, Watermark Residences, and ConstellationCenter. For more information, please call (617) 577-7354.
