Weekend in NoMad: Vijay Iyer Trio, The Dance Cartel

ana taji's dance cartel returns to ace hotel

It’s a weekend of NoMad favorites! Many of our neighborhood regulars are returning to perform in the upcoming days.

Jazz Standard veteran Vijay Iyer is back. The jazz pianist, composer, bandleader, producer, electronic musician, writer, and soon-to-be Harvard professor, brings his trio back to the neighborhood for a night of great music.  His current band is one of the most celebrated jazz groups today, having been named Downbeat’s “Jazz Group of the Year” in 2012. Come see what the Grammy nominees have in store for you every night this weekend.

It’s not often that your see a modern dance troupe perform at a trendy hotel. However, if you follow the Ace Hotel calendar, you would have had a chance to see Ani Taj’s The Dance Cartel multiple times this year. Featuring a rotating cast of guest artists in all mediums, The Dance Cartel’s ONTHEFLOOR series at Ace Hotel’s Liberty Hall always provides a good time. Tickets are still available for Saturday’s performance, but they are sure to go fast.

Have a fantastic weekend!
