CALUMET -- The Calumet Art Center will host jazz duo Northern Standard Time (NST) at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 5. Northern Standard Time features Mike Christianson -- on trombone, tuba, and electric bass -- and Mike Irish on guitars.

The NST repertoire consists of jazz standards from all eras, Latin and Brazilian classics, blues, Pop, soul, and even some funk. The hallmark of the group is creative improvisation in the moment. No two performances are alike, and thus always refreshing. The groove is the focus.

Mike and Mike, as NST, are available for concerts, clinics, private parties, co-op openings, grassfires, and snake-stomps!

Tickets are $10 at the door. Proceeds benefit the Calumet Art Center programs. For more information call 934-2228. The Calumet Art Center is at 57055 Fifth St. in Calumet.
