SUMMARY:John Scofield Trio
DESCRIPTION:There has been a John Scofield Trio at play since the late 70’s and it undisputedly remains his favorite format. The newest incarnation\, Scofield on guitar\, bassist Vicente Archer and drummer Bill Stewart are having fun. They sail through tightly knit sets that typify the musical diversity that has colored Scofield’s long career: time honored jazz standards\, rock and blues classics\, savvy original Scofield compositions and whatever assorted off-the-cuff improvisations that turn up on a whim. More than just a collection of tunes\, they play music that embodies the spirit that has kept improvisational jazz vigorous and visceral since its start. Named for the Grateful Dead song that concludes Scofield’s inspired double album\, Uncle John’s Band features masterful guitarist John Scofield at his most freewheeling. Scofield says\, “All in all it’s a mixed bag of tunes but we treat them equally as vehicles for improvisation – not just covering the songs.”

SUMMARY:An Evening With Alejandro Escovedo
DESCRIPTION:Alejandro Escovedo’s New Album ECHO DANCING is an Adventure in Life! No one has really ever been able to define themselves and their music like singer-songwriter Alejandro Escovedo does. His life in music of all kinds sometimes feels like a swirl through the sky\, where his songs point out all the majesty and mystery of how he sees the world. The sounds he makes take him places that he might not even predict\, but once there\, greatness always follows. It’s just the way Escovedo is. It has happened over and over for decades\, almost like a fateful agreement he has with the cosmos. There is a good chance it cannot be explained\, especially by him. Maybe that’s because this is a musician who feels magic\, both in himself and the world around him\, and is open to the experience of whatever comes his way. It is not always easy\, and can have a high demand on how a person lives. But it is the way that Escovedo is always moving forward. Alejandro will be performing solo for this show.
