John Moulder Quartet at Local Note: Four players, two sittings
John Moulder’s Local Note lineup includes a documented musical connection: drummer Paul Wertico is also among the artists Moulder cites from his past work. Pianist Vijay Tellis Nayak and bassist Larry Gray complete the quartet, with Moulder on guitar.
Four players, clearly named
The ticket listing names Moulder on guitar, Nayak on piano, Gray on acoustic bass and Wertico on drums. It identifies the musicians and instruments rather than a song list, so the lineup—not a promised repertoire—is the clearest guide to the performance.
Moulder’s biography describes his composing as shaped by a range of musical traditions. His past performance credits include Eddie Harris, Bob Mintzer, Lyle Mays and Wertico; Wertico is the quartet’s drummer for this date.

A Chicago connection beyond the stage
Moulder’s biography identifies Chicago as his hometown and says he is on the jazz studies faculty at Northwestern University and the College of the Performing Arts at Roosevelt University in Chicago. It also notes that he has performed nationally and internationally. That regional background offers context for a concert in Evanston without suggesting what the quartet will play.

One quartet, two sittings
The listing names the same quartet for both performances. Local Note specifically recommends reservations for 7:30 p.m. sets, so the earlier show calls for more advance planning.
