Patrick Adkins and Max Johnk will perform duo sets on piano and bass.
Patrick Adkins is an inventive, empathetic Minneapolis-based pianist and composer. An in-demand band leader and sideman all over town, Patrick has made his mark on the Twin Cities jazz scene, performing at jazz festivals across the Midwest and sharing the bandstand with luminaries such as JT Bates, Dean Magraw, Davu Seru, Michelle Kinney, and Brandon Wozniak. Patrick is a member of the modern jazz collective SPACE (which has released the albums "The Approaching Coast” and "Non-Trivial Problem"), and he branches out from piano to synthesizers for the indie glam-pop band d'Lakes.
Max Johnk is a journeyman bassist who lives and works in Minneapolis, MN. A recent transplant to the Twin Cities, Johnk has worked in the jazz, indie, Americana, and underground metal scenes across the Midwest for over a decade. He has been lucky to perform with Dakota Andersen, Wayne Anthony, Abinnet Berhanu, Davina and the Vagabonds, Paul Hecht, Cassandra Johnson, Toussaint Morrison, Conor Lee, Ethan Ostrow, The Weeping Covenant, and many others.
