Evening Star is a space odyssey led by Detroit drummer and 2018 U of M SMTD graduate Tariq Gardner. The group grows out of Detroit's deep musical tradition and jazz legacy, then travels through the galaxies of African Diaspora music: jazz, neo-soul, Afro-Cuban, traditional American gospel and hip-hop.
