Based in the Bay Area and soon celebrating their 25th anniversary, Charged Particles crosses stylistic boundaries and blends jazz styles with elements from Latin music, classical music, funk, and more. The band will be offering an electrifying, free jazz concert at the Lafayette Library from 7 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13.

The group's original compositions are mixtures of elaborate orchestration and opportunities for creative improvised solos. And they bring a similar approach to playing arrangements of tunes by other jazz artists and traditional jazz standards, each played with a new twist. Reviewers, such as Jazz Times Magazine have called the group "a tight and enormously talented trio."

Charged Particles has appeared at Yoshi's in San Francisco, Vitello's in Los Angeles, Café Cordiale in Sherman Oaks, and the historic Lighthouse in Redondo Beach. The group's hundreds of other appearances include the Houston International Jazz Festival, the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the Orange County Arts and Jazz Festival, the Midwest Jazz Heritage Festival, the Trenton Jazz Festival, the King Cobra Jazz Festival, and a tour of Sweden.
