Led by Grammy Award winning trombonist, Ryan Keberle, Catharsis has been hailed by the Los Angeles Times for its “potent blend of cinematic sweep and lush, ear-grabbing melodies.” The highly acclaimed group brings together elements of chamber music, South American folk and indie rock within a traditional jazz framework, resulting in a sound that has thrilled audiences across the globe for over a decade.  In Catharsis, the potent frontline rapport of Keberle, trumpet virtuoso, Mike Rodriguez, and guitarist/vocalist, Camila Meza, alongside the unshakable rhythm of bassist Jorge Roeder and drummer Jimmy Macbride combine to form an unmistakable sound full of drama and intrigue.  Catharsis has toured internationally for years, engaging audiences of all kinds at international jazz festivals, jazz clubs, concert halls, and universities around the world. The band was also featured in NPR’s prestigious Tiny Desk Concert series and on the French TV channel Mezzo.  Catharsis band members bring an impressive wealth of experience of their own, playing an integral role in many of today’s foremost jazz, Latin jazz, and indie rock ensembles, including bands led by Maria Schneider, SF Jazz, Kenny Barron, Julian Lage, Chris Thile, Sufjan Stevens, and Paquito D’Rivera.
