Ensemble

Led by accomplished pianist and composer Andru Dennis, Mana Cannon showcases the dynamic fusion of Northeast Ohio's diverse musical talent. Dennis, a graduate of Tri-C's renowned jazz program and the University of Hartford's Jackie McLean Institute, brings world-class training and experience performing with jazz luminaries including Wynton Marsalis, Jack DeJohnette, and George Cables.


The trio features Cleveland drummer Gabe Jones, a Cleveland School of the Arts and Tri-C graduate who has become one of the city's most in-demand percussionists. Jones brings extensive touring experience with Modern Warrior LIVE and acclaimed trumpeter Dominick Farinacci, demonstrating his versatility across multiple musical contexts.


Completing the ensemble is SmokeFace, the innovative Akron-based bassist and producer whose masked persona represents "timeless and limitless creativity."
