Another Friday at Bird & Beckett
two wonderful varieties of jazz

Friday (4/11) from 6-8pm, Eric & the In Crowd, tonight with Eric Shifrin, piano/vocal; Heath Proskin, bass; and Jimmy Duchowny, drums, plus a surprise guest. Jimmy, who’s just flown in from Brazil, is an old friend from Eric’s teenage jazz beginnings. Back then, in Malibu, Eric was playing sax and heard that a younger kid who lived around the corner was playing the drums.  Jimmy also had a piano and his dad put it in a small nook at the back of the house where Eric and Jimmy began playing all the time.  Just the two of them Eric on piano and sax, Jimmy on drums. Once, when they heard that Ronnie Laws had moved in across the street, they set up in Jimmy’s front yard and tried to attract the famous jazz flutist’s attention playing Eric’s fiercely modern tune RED SHIFT. The rest is history! $20/byob._________

Friday (4/11) from 8:30-10pm, the Aaron Bennett Trio (Aaron Bennett – sax, Dan Seamans – bass, Tim Bulkley, drums) plays jazz from the trio’s latest album releases “Live at S.F. Jazz” and “Plays for Lovers” including compositions by Thelonious Monk, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin and the leader and saxophonist Aaron Bennett. $20 cover charge, byob.
