But nothing beats being in the room
with the music & the musicians!

Friday, November 24th – 6-8pm
Tony Johnson Quartet

Tony Johnson on drums and Keith Saunders on piano on a Bird & Beckett date not so many years back with bassist Adam Gay and the late, great and wonderful vocalist Denise Perrier.

Bob Kenmotsu, tenor saxophone
Keith Saunders, piano
Eric Markowitz, bass
Tony Johnson, drums

Classic, swingin’ jazz from four master practitioners of the art!

Tony Johnson has been on the scene since 1960, and has never stopped. His bandmates are a generation or two younger, with three to four decades apiece in the business, playing at a high level all along the way.

Kids welcome! Give them a taste of America’s great art form in a friendly setting. Under 12, free. Pay ten for the teenagers in your care. Adults? $20 will get it! Teens & music students on your own, $5-10 sliding scale.

We like to pay the musicians (in fact, we make a point of doing so), and do that with solid support from our audiences and neighborhood donors. Be in that number, when the saints coming marching in!

Byob.

See you at Bird & Beckett!
