But nothing beats being in the room with the music & the musicians!
Friday, October 4th, 8:30-10pm, you’ll hear Darren Johnston, trumpet; Kai Lyons, guitar; Rob Ewing, electric bass; and Dillon Vado, drums. Darren says the combo, Swerve, is “not a swing thing, more a collective groove band doing each others originals.” It’s always a thrill to hear what Darren and his cohorts cook up. At a simmer or a rolling boil, it’ll be delicious.
Saturday, October 5th, 7:30-9:30pm, it’s pianist Larry Dunlap’s trio with Ken Miller on bass and Akira Tana on drums. Larry Dunlap’s tenure on the San Francisco jazz scene and internationally over six decades has included memorable work in long associations with singers Bobbe Norris and Amandio Cabral. As a pianist, composer, arranger and music director, he’s among the best in the business, with wonderful stories to relate.
Sunday, October 6th, 5-6pm, Mamboléo, a six-piece latin jazz band out of Ruth Asawa School or the Arts up at the top of Glen Canyon, with Santiago Winton, piano; Amaru Duran-Calahorrano, congas; Ben Gleason, drums; Vito Marcacci, trombone; Sai Ray, trumpet; and Sadie Scott Jones, bass. A jam session follows hosted by the Keith Saunders Trio from 6-8pm, particularly attuned to young players stretching their wings in jazz.
