Sir Threadius Mongus featuring Annie Ellicottwith special guest Mark Southerland

Jardine’s

Kansas City , Missouri

Show starts at 10:30 pm.

$5 Door

Mark Southerland is an adventurous creator, musician, and composer. His music comes from

the tradition of A Love Supreme and Bitches Brew gone Sun Ra: electric, eclectic, and concentric .

Jeff Davis, whose compositions have recently been performed by The People’s Liberation Big

Band of Greater Kansas City , is working with Black House Improvisors’ Collective on their

current residency, and is also known as an adventurous creator of strange and beautiful

compositions, has developed Sir Threadius Mongus as a vehicle—a.k.a. Annie’s Mingus

Continental —for Annie Ellicott’s seemingly limitless talents. The music has been described as

“pure genius” and “epic.”
