DESCRIPTION:PAUL HANSON\, MICHAEL MANRING\, SCOTT AMENDOLA ELECTRIC ADVENTU
 RES PAUL HANSON-Bassoon\, electronics MICHAEL MANRING-Bass\, Hyperbass\, e
 lectronics SCOTT AMENDOLA-drums\, electronics Paul Hanson\, Michael Manrin
 g and Scott Amendola bring their expansive\, funky blend of electric basso
 on-fed music to Wyldflowr Arts on September 3rd\, 2026. With the amount of
  experience\, creativity and unique approaches to their instruments that t
 his group possesses-it’s no wonder each member has had a long career at 
 the vanguard of their genres. Paul\, Michael and Scott play exciting music
  that can shift on an instant in any direction- and the fun they have is e
 asily seen and felt. They all have decades of experience touring\, teachin
 g and recording all over the world. The collective experience of this trio
  is pretty wide-spread as these 3 have performed with quite a list of arti
 sts: Jon Batiste\, Vinnie Colaiuta\, Charlie Hunter\, Billy Cobham\, Alex 
 Skolnick\, John Gorka\, Nels Cline\, Billy Cobham\, Henry Kaiser\, Mike Pa
 tton\, Suzanne Ciani\, Sex Mob\, Wayne Shorter\, Phil Lesh\, Bela Fleck an
 d the Flecktones\, Taylor Eigsti\, Wadada Leo Smith and many more. QUOTES:
