Last night the 2013 Earshot Jazz Festival kicked off with two shows, Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock, Jack DeJohnette at BENAROYA HALL and Industrial Revelation at TULA’S. They were both formidable performances. Here are pictures from Industrial Revelation since Keith Jarrett is camera shy.
Widely regarded as the best drummer in Seattle, D’Vonne Lewis proppeled Seattle’s homegrown, hard-hitting post-genre quartet – with bassist Evan Flory-Barnes, Rhodes pianist Josh Rawlings and trumpeter Aham Oluo – through epic, improvised jams.

Formed in 2005 with the collective interest to build a group that would have the ability to express freely, outside a specific genre or label, and to play with the utmost passion, Industrial Revelation has brought considerable thunder to Seattle club dates. They’ve released It Can Only Get Better From Here, a live recording containing a single twenty-minute song, and their debut studio album Unreal Reality, with guests Owuor Arunga, trumpet (Macklemore), and Seattle soul singer Choklate (Vitamin D, Darrius Willrich).

Also in that time, members Flory-Barnes and Oluo have premiered longform musical opuses mixing multiple aspects of their own talents and the talents of their colleagues – the Meet the Composer commissioned Acknowledgement of a Celebration by Flory-Barnes and Now I’m Fine by Oluo.

Industrial Revelation is celebrating their recent Oak Head release.
