The deep freeze just seems to get deeper – enough already! The deep freeze may be here but the music goes on. In order to carry on, you need to get by with a little help from friends. Here are some friendly Jazz In Town events for this weekend:
Friends And Neighbors
What do you do when you have friends and neighbors on the faculty of Villa Maria Jazz Program? Why, you form a faculty jazz quintet named Friends and Neighbors. Catch the Pausa debut of this group with Kelly Bucheger on sax, Ron LoCurto on guitar, Jerry Livingston on bass, Michael McNeil on piano, and John Bacon Jr. on drums. Tonight, Thursday at 8pm at Pausa. The weather may freezing, but the jazz is sure to be hot.
JFT
Look for this group of jazz funk players to hit Pausa tomorrow night at 8pm. With Toney Rhodes on piano, Carl “Flute” Johnson on drums, and Jerry Livingston on bass. Tony Rhodes just released a killer CD entitled Buffalo Spell.
