Sunday, 22 August 2010 13:50 The Bad Plus will play as a duo tonight

David King, the drummer of the American jazz trio The Bad Plus, is unable to perform tonight in the Huvila Festival Tent due to illness. The trio is thus reduced into a duo, consisting of pianist Ethan Iverson and basist Reid Anderson.

The tent is warmed up by Tokka, one of Finland's foremost modern piano jazz acts.

The absence of King entitles ticket holders to get their tickets refunded in Lippupiste's agencies. Tickets for the concert are sold at normal price by the entrance tonight.
