Secret Architecture is a creative, improvisational, NYC-based Jazz group co founded by Fraser Campbell (Perth, Scotland) and Zach Mangan (Minnesota, USA). Since meeting at Berklee College of Music (Boston) and forming the group in 2006, they have performed successfully in many diverse and creative venues. For the last year they have held a weekly residence at Caffe Vivaldi, one of New York City’s premier jazz venues. Each week the members of Secret Architecture challenge themselves to compose, rehearse, and perform new music.

 

 

The Group comprises of:

 

Fraser Campbell – Saxophone
