Larry Vann Trio
jazz in the bookshop and live in the stream

Larry Vann has long been the Groove Merchant! He brings it again with his long-time working trio, with Michael Warren on bass and Tim Landis on guitar, for two sets of jazz, soul, blues and funk.

Larry has performed with Curtis Mayfield, Elvis Bishop and Charlie Musselwhite, among a raft of superstars, and he’s played the Bird & Beckett stage many times, with this trio and with the New Squatoolas and Todd Swenson’s This Side Up.

He’s a cornerstone of the Bay Area music scene and has been for decades!

Catch his New Squatoolas turn just this past Thanksgiving weekend at this link!
