Hi Friends!
I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend. Just wanted to check in and let you know about a few upcoming performances/jam sessions in Philly this week, if you're interested in checking out some live jazz to close out the month of September!
This Tuesday night, 23rd Street Cafe hosts its weekly Jazz Jam Session, from 7:30 pm - 11:30 pm. The House Trio features "Father John" D'Amico on piano, "Big Jim" Dofton on drums, and Kenny Davis on bass. This establishment is open only on Tuesday nights for the Jazz Jam, and is free to the public.
After hitting up 23rd Street, shoot on over to the Victor North Jazz Jam at Chris' Jazz Cafe, from 10:30 pm - 2 am.
On Wednesday night, check out Grey Lounge's Jazz Jam, from 8 pm - 11:30 pm. This is also a weekly event! Musicians are welcome to join the House Band (formerly of Ortliebs), commonly known as "The Philly Rhythm Section," for the second and third sets. Band members include: Byron Landham on drums, Sid Simmons on piano, and Mike Boone on bass. Parking is free, and the lounge offers a Mediterranean-themed menu if you plan on bringing your appetite.
If you're itching to get out on a Thursday, a reminder that Jump City Jazz Orchestra will be performing two sets at Le Cochon Noir, from 8 pm - 10 pm the last Thursday of every month (that's this week!). Close out the month of September right with some great jazz music and an upscale BBQ menu, and be sure to BYO!
I'm going to try to make it out to a few of these, and hope to see you there, too! Enjoy the last week of September!
Musically yours,
Tina
