Get Jiggle Wit’ It

NYC-style quartet rocks the Leaf

By Steve Jansen

Published on February 14, 2008

For a real taste of jazz in this town, à la NYC-style (the best style, btw), hit up the Lost Leaf any Sunday evening and marinate your ears in the sounds of local quartet Jiggle. The band — fronted by founder/bassist Ted Sistrunk and including hot-shot drummer Shaun Lowecki and woodwind players Scott Zimmer and Bryon Ruth — nestles itself in a corner of the art bar and plays burning originals that feature notated passages and sections of free improv.
