The Jazz Voyager

The Jazz Voyager is leaving the Big Apple by way of JFK is crisscrossing the country once again to check out a new venue called the Mississippi Studios in Portland, Oregon. Situated in the Boise neighborhood of the city it is both a recording studio and a music venue presenting not only local but national talent.

Tonight I’m going to see a long time favorite who I met when she was emerging as an artist and I played her on the air. She is saxophonist and composer Hailey Niswanger. After graduating in 2011 with a B.A. in Jazz Performance from Berklee College of Music this Texas native who grew up in Portland, Oregon returns home to perform. She leades her own band and has shared the stage with Esperanza Spalding, Terri Lyne Carrington, Harvey Mason, Mike Clark, Michael Wolff, Ralph Peterson Jr., and others.

Mississippi Studios is located at 3939 N Mississippi Avenue 97227. You can get more information at https://notoriousjazz.com/event/hailey-niswanger.
