Boston’s Creative Nation Music is proud to announce the initial dates of its Creative Nation Music Concert Showcase, a package tour with stops in three New England states featuring artists from its roster.
This series of concerts, happening in February and March, is part of the label’s ongoing fifth anniversary celebration, which also includes new releases and the launch of a new series of rare, never-before-released and reissued music called The Hub Collection.
Founded in early 2004 by guitarist/composer Eric Hofbauer, Creative Nation Music specializes in documenting the Boston jazz scene’s most distinctive musical personalities. The label will release Garrison Fewell’s Variable Density Sound Orchestra (CNM 014) and The Ayn Inserto Jazz Orchestra’s Muse (CNM 015) on February 17th.
