Eight Gigs: Aziza
Wed., April 5, 8 p.m., Mondavi Center, $12.50-$45
Members of the adventurous jazz quartet Aziza bring their collective talents to Davis next week. Aziza is led by legendary bassist Dave Holland, a former Miles Davis band member who for decades explored more new directions than most Uber drivers log in a week. Abundantly talented saxophonist Chris Potter and killer drummer Eric Garland have explored jazz boundaries with Holland previously and multiple configurations of their own. The group is rounded out with guitarist Lionel Loueke who adds touches of African and Caribbean influences to the genre-bending jazz mix. 1 Shields Avenue in Davis, http://daveholland.com.
