JAZZ IN THE PLAZA

Every Sunday from 1 pm to 3:30 pm, “JAZZ IN THE PLAZA” continues its Fifth Season of free, outdoor jazz concerts in Putnam Plaza – in front of the Speakeasy Restaurant in downtown Petaluma.

JUNE 8th – features the return of the great guitarist Brian Pardo from his time teaching and playing in Texas. Brian is something else!
JUNE 15th – features one of the premier saxophonists in New York city, Tim Armacost, along with his first-call SF rhythm section. Attached is a song he sent me to play on my KRBC radio show. Enjoy and don’t miss the gig!
JUNE 22nd – features keyboard/flugelhorn player Doug Morton and guitarist Randy Vincent, both authors of Sher Music Co. publications. Some high-class playing will ensue.
JUNE 29TH – features my old roommate Jay Thomas, a brilliant saxophonist and trumpeter who came down from Seattle especially to play in his old stomping grounds. All in all, a great month of music right here in Petaluma!

The creation of Chuck Sher (jazz bassist, book publisher and KRCB radio host ), “Jazz in the Plaza” will have a rotating cast of the best local jazz musicians playing high-class, listenable music – including outstanding players like Ken Cook, Kendrick Freeman, Randy Vincent, David Rokeach, Rob Suddeth, Doug Morton and many more.

Bring the family and hang out with the crowd of music lovers that show up every week. These concerts are graciously sponsored by local philanthropists Music in Place and Jamey Aebersold’s www.jazzbooks.com. Support Quality Live Music!
