    No Idea Festival Day 1 w/ Ken Vandermark & Mabel Kwan

    Anchored by Chicago saxophonist Ken Vandermark and Austin native Mabel Kwan, Chris Cogburn’s No Idea Festival emerges from the shadows with the Vernacular Residency. Night one features a film screening of Vandermark doc Musician, a Vandermark/Kwan duo set, and a panel discussion. Night two includes a Vandermark master class, the Mabel Kwan/Juan García duo, the saxophonist’s Texas Ensemble (with various Young Mothers and former Sons of Hercules drummer Kory Cook), and a set of music by founding AACM member Fred Anderson and Dallas avant trumpet pioneer Dennis González, whose son Stefan co-leads the band with Vandermark. Heaven for musical improv junkies. – Michael Toland
