2018 Thursday Concert Line-Up

7/5: James Torme Group
Multi-award-winning singer James Torme’s debut album has topped both the iTunes and Amazon Jazz Charts. Torme is now consistently appearing to standing room only crowds at the world’s top venues as well as being featured as the centerpiece of Jazz festivals across the globe.

 7/12: Brighton Beat
The Brighton Beat’s goal is to create music that is able to breathe and develop, with songs allowing the musicians to communicate and tell a story. Heavily influenced by Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, the group creates grooves reminiscent of Herbie Hancock, at times reaching the raw expression of Miles Davis and Freddie Hubbard.

7/19: Mike LeDonne Groover Quartet
Michael LeDonne is a jazz pianist and organist known for post-bop and hard bop. He is one of the leading players of the Hammond B3 organ and was nominated for Best Keyboardist of 2012 by the Jazz Journalists Association and has won the Downbeat critic’s poll for “Rising Star” on organ.
