If you haven’t picked up the latest issue of CODA yet, make sure you do. In it you can catch up with our own Nick “Brownman” Ali and hear his stories of New York.
“Trumpeter Nick “Brownman” Ali’s award-winning blend of Latin jazz, funk and hip hop has attracted dance-loving music fans and the criticism of jazz traditionalists in almost equal measure. His latest gig with Guru’s Jazzmatazz project exposes him to a whole new audience.
As always, there is plenty to check out in our fair city…
Tonight at the Rex you can catch Adam Niewood who is in from New York, then stick around for the Nancy Walker Trio’s CD release. Friday things get going early with the Hogtown Syncopators followed at 6:30 by the Arti Roth Trio, and finally wrapping the night up with the Chris Hunt Tentet + 2 at 9:30 pm. The Barry Romberg Quartet take over Saturday, but not before the Mr. Justin Bacchus warms things up from 7pm.
The Adrean Farrugia Trio has been in at the Opal Jazz Lounge since Tuesday, and you’ve got three more chances to hear him before he wraps up his stay Saturday.
The Pilot has KOLLAGE in Saturday afternoon from 3:30 – 6:30 pm, and then it’s the Sugar Daddies Sunday.
Finally, Sunday at you can catch the William Carn Quartet at Chalkers Pub from 7-10 pm.
Cheers!
