variety of styles includes cha-cha, samba, flamenco and tango, and will have
you dancing in no time! Learn more about Goza here.

July 26 – Sasha Dobson
This singer/songwriter is a
rising star who has toured with some of the music world’s greatest talents,
including Willie Nelson, Norah Jones and Neil Young. Her debut album, Modern
Romance, is a fusion of Brazilian Groove, pop, jazz and selections from the
Great American Songbook. Sasha comes back to New Haven due to popular demand
following her acclaimed performance at NMS’s Le Jazz event last March. Learn more about Sasha Dobson here.

August 2 – Model Decoy
Model Decoy is an art-rock group, and New
Haven favorite, that plays original songs ranging from upbeat and catchy, to
slow and sublime. This imaginative duo Doron Monk Flake and Ari Sadowitz, and
their band, certainly don’t stick to the same old topics when it comes to
song-writing - their lyrical influences are drawn from literature, graphic
novels, sci-fi shows and classic films. Learn more about Model Decoy here.

August 9 –
Lonnie Plaxico
Don’t miss this
renowned Jazz bassist and composer who has performed with notables including
Alice Coltrane, Junior Cook and Dizzy Gillespie, not to mention his Grammy
award-winning collaborations with Art Blakey and Cassandra Wilson. This
performance will feature Plaxico and NMS faculty members performing classic jazz
as well as his original compositions.
