Through saxophones, clarinets, flutes, piano, and vocals, **MAE.SUN** (aka Hailey Niswanger) orchestrates sonic landscapes rooted in love, awareness, and healing. Originally from Portland, MAE.SUN first began making waves in the jazz community as Hailey Niswanger when she won the Mary Lou Williams Women in Jazz International Saxophone Competition before graduating high school. Her Billboard-charting debut album Confeddie, garnered praise from jazz critics, including Nat Hentoff of The Wall Street Journal, and was listed among NPR’s top jazz albums of the year. While living in New York City, she released her second and third albums, The Keeper and PDX Soul, all while touring with Esperanza Spalding’s Radio Music Society. No less a jazz organ authority than the legendary Dr. Lonnie Smith has called **Wil Blades** “the future,” anointing him the heir apparent to “carry on the legend and the legacy of the organ, of the B-3.” Over the past twenty plus years, Blades has grown to be one of the most in-demand Hammond organ players, achieving international recognition. He is known for his innovative approach to the Hammond organ, utilizing effects and modern techniques to expand the instrument's capabilities, while his energetic live performances have earned him a dedicated following.
