“Formed in the summer of 2011, the Shawn Parrotte Quintet is a band of young musicians from the Plattsburgh area who share a love for jazz and improvisation. After deciding to expand their jazz guitar duo to a full band, Shawn Parrotte and Corey Marsico added Bill Bougill on drums and Chris Dalnodar on bass. The sound clicked so well they began booking gigs immediately after the first rehearsal. At a gig during the winter Kevin Colon sat in, and once he played Blues for Alice note for note on his tenor sax Shawn decided he needed him in the band. As Plattsburgh’s only straight ahead jazz band, they try to capture to original nature of the art form while simultaneously pushing the standards to new directions.” [Essex Community Concerts.]
