But nothing beats being in the room with the music & the musicians!
Come along on a journey to the center of the jazz, a deep dive into the dark caves of improvised music in search of the music’s inner light. The expedition has been conceived and rehearsed and is ready to descend. Come cheer them on as they don the requisite gear and visit a mysterious interior never yet explored by jazz musicians!
Bruce Ackley, reeds
Scott Foster, guitar
Pete Schmitt, bass
David Brandt, drums
Scott Foster has been bringing us fresh projects on the 3rd Friday of the month for years now, and has never yet run out of prospects. We’re always the richer for it. This time he’s mining for beatcoin.
Please bring $20 in cash for the cover charge so we can pay these musicians a guaranteed fair wage. Also bring proof of vaccination and a mask, and something to sip.
If you can’t get to the shop or can’t grab a seat (capacity 20), you can take in the music via our Facebook page or YouTube channel. Please donate if you’re able. Any amount is appreciated and donations are voluntary. We thank you sincerely for supporting the music & the enterprise we call Bird & Beckett.
