New Years Day jazz in the bookshop!
Don Prell’s SeaBop Quartet

Don-Jerry-vinnieCount on bassist Don Prell and his confreres to keep the jazz ball rolling at Bird & Beckett right into 2016!  We’ve never missed a Friday jazz date since the series began back in late 2002, so we’re well into our 14th year… nearly 700 consecutive Fridays and counting!

Don got his start in LA in the early 1950s, and now leads the boppish unit he calls the SeaBop Ensemble.  They hold forth every Tuesday night down at the Bayview Boat Club on Terry Francoise Blvd. near the ballpark, and on the 1st Friday of each month they entertain the Bird & Beckett audience.  Tonight, he’s got stalwarts Jerry Logas on sax, Ray Scott on guitar and Vinnie Rodriguez on drums — Bird & Beckett favorites all.  Live jazz at Bird & Beckett every Friday from 5:30-8:00.  Pay what you can, but a ten-spot per adult is what it really takes to keep this thing thriving!

Happy New Year!
