High Places
@ The Sneaky Pete's
High Places is Rob Barber and Mary Pearson. Throughout its nearly five years of existence, the band has traveled extensively and performed in a multitude of environments.
Whether performing at the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan or in an industrial warehouse in Santiago, Chile, High Places’ enveloping sound and propulsive energy allow the music to translate to a variety of venues.
Visual art plays an important role in Mary and Rob’s collaboration. The two make video projections for their stage shows, keep a photo blog that documents their travels, hellohighplaces.blogspot.com, and create their own album artwork. In this way and others, Mary and Rob challenge the conventional parameters of a rock band and instead give us a multi-sensory aesthetic partnership that continually defies expectations.

Scottish National Jazz Orchestra presents:
The Music of Weather Report with special guest Peter Erskine
@ The Queen's Hall
Consistently the most vital, creative and influential jazz-fusion band of the 1970s and 80s, Weather Report continues to inspire new listeners and committed fans alike. They combined instantly familiar melodies, global influences and swinging, exhilarating grooves, driven for much of their journey by Peter Erskine’s phenomenal drumming. Their music defined the genre with iconic tunes such as the jazz classic Birdland (see YouTube clip below) and major selling albums including Black Market and Heavy Weather. Now, Peter Erskine will pilot Europe’s leading jazz orchestra, the SNJO, through a selection of classic Weather Report numbers.
6.45pm, Pre-concert Discussion Peter Erskine and Tommy Smith in conversation (free to ticket holders)
