Daggerboard
In the nautical realm, the daggerboard is an essential tool that provides a sailboat with stability and navigability. In world of jazz, Daggerboard refers to the prolific collaboration between Erik Jekabson, the Berkeley-bred trumpeter, composer, and arranger who’s been at the center of the Bay Area jazz scene for the past two decades, and Gregory Howe, the composer, multi-instrumentalist, and founder/owner of Wide Hive Records.
Daggerboard: The Skipper and Mike Clark adds a fiercely grooving, orchestrationally lush new chapter to the ongoing partnership by showcasing the dynamic rhythm section tandem of bassist Henry “The Skipper” Franklin and drummer Mike Clark, two musicians who’ve etched their names in history.
