The Tony Johnson Quartet

Drummer Tony Johnson’s residency at Bird & Beckett continues, this month with his quartet featuring Bob Kenmotsu on tenor saxophone, Keith Saunders on piano and Eric Markowitz on bass.

Tony swam ashore from Australia in 1959 and hit North Beach swingin’. The singer Bev Kelly led a date at the Coffee Gallery in October 1960 with Pony Poindexter on saxophone, Flip Nunez on piano, Johnny Allen on bass and Tony, himself, on drums, recorded by Wally Heider, produced by Orrin Keepnews and released by Riverside Records as “Bev Kelly, Live at the Coffee Gallery.” Here’s a taste. 

$20 suggested cover charge / byob.
Students $10; kids free.
