Mancrush
MANCRUSH is a Twin Cities based band led by drummer and composer Lars-Erik Larson. With Bryan Nichols on keyboard, Brandon Wozniak on tenor saxophone, and Zacc Harris on guitar, MANCRUSH crafts an intentionally sparse musical landscape. As a composer, Larson attempts to bring a similar musical aesthetic as that of folk music and minimalism into jazz. With simple harmonies, strong melodies, and a commitment to a sparse musical aesthetic, MANCRUSH has quickly become one of the most respected new bands in the twin cities jazz scene.
