About
Technocats will be performing the music of jazz composer Gregg Hill. The group consists of Nathan Borton (guitar), Seth Ebersole (saxophones), Javier Arguello (bass) and Michael Reed (drums). "Composer Gregg Hill grew up in central Michigan in a household where the music was always playing. As a small child, he remembers conga lines snaking through the house on Saturday nights to the sound of jazz. His parents, Norma and Ken, were part of the swing craze in the big band era. His sister Susan, also plays piano and is a life-long music lover. In high school, Gregg played sax in a stage band and headed up a quintet. He loved the saxophone, but the piano had a stronger allure as far as creative possibilities. The piano took over completely when he was bitten by the jazz writing bug.
