Join the chordless jazz trio, SPH+2, for an evening of original jazz music from the pen of emerging saxophonist/composer Stephen Philip Harvey. This ensemble is Harvey’s smallest ensemble in his array of bands that he leads; focused on straight ahead improvisation in the most intimate setting. Joining him for this performance will be Baltimore’s Mike Graham on bass and Annapolis’s Jordon Stanley on drums. The trio will be playing a mix of original music as they prepare for the live recording of their second album later this year.
SPH+2 has two releases under their belt: Little Gifts EP (2023) and Library Card (2024). Their first release, Little Gifts EP, contains arrangements of holiday favorites and an original ballad. Their first full length release, Library Card, boasts Harvey’s original suite of music inspired by children’s and young adult literature.
Experience the action-packed music of the Stephen Philip Harvey Jazz Orchestra as they record their second album, Multiversal, live at BOP STOP. Harvey combines soaring melodies, driving vamps, and an amazing band of musicians to bring his comic book-themed large ensemble music to life. Be a part of the live recording experience as they document the seven original compositions for this next album.
The band will play through the entire album twice in two separate sets. Tickets for tonight are $20 each for either the 7pm or 9:30 set, $30 if you want to attend both sets. This show will not be live-streamed.
