We are lucky to get him! Backing him up will one of my favorites, Dave Landoni

also March 14; Monday Club Bar - No cover charge. The Bo &
Bill Winiker quartet play a cool brand of jazz that was conceived
on the west coast of the United States in the mid 1950s and early
60s, created by artists such as Chet Baker, Stan Getz, and Gerry
Mulligan. It is the antithesis of the wild and furious style of
jazz that was being played on the east coast at the time, with its
light and melodic style and smooth hypnotic drum beat. The west
coast style of jazz is driving but subtle and tasteful—it is toe
tapping jazz. This is an evening to make a jazz lover out of skeptics!
