ImageSample some 'organic cookin' with the Tuesday Night Band. Hammond B-3 organ lovers have been flocking to the AQ on Tuesday nights for over a decade to get a soulful dose of funky jazz.   ImageThe Tuesday Night Band features "Downtown" Bill Brown (Hammond B-3), Billy Franze (guitar), and Kenny Horst (drums) + guests!  Anything can happen - and frequently does.  Check out these videos: "April in Paris" www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqn2eCvvO3A and "Soulful Drums" www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGnLyYYPspE   - then come on down and join the fun. It's nothing but a party every Tuesday night. There's no stopping the groove.

ImageThe Artists' Quarter's hottest night opens with the Cory Wong Quartet featuring Zach W. Schmidt on drums, Cory J. Wong on guitar, Andy Schuster on bass and Dan M. Musselman on piano  starting at 7:00 P.M. These young, talented musicians provide the perfect prelude to the AQ's longest standing engagement. Check this video of the Cory Wong Quartet /www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrBd4wMzjGU

Tuesday night drink specials from 11 p.m. until midnight!  

 
Wednesday, February 17, Tesfa Combo & Jam (7pm) George Avaloz Quartet (9 pm, $5)

ImageGeorge Avaloz grew up on St. Paul's West Side, where his entertainment career began as a young Mexican hat dancer at various community celebrations.  But drumming is how this hip performer has made his mark in show business, playing with such greats as Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Sarah Vaughan, Quincy Jones, and a ten-year tour of duty with Billy Eckstine.  On his last CD The Highest Mountain, Avaloz proved once again why he ranks among the best timekeepers and musical interpreters of the glory years of bebop and ballad jazz.

 Image

An free opening set at 7 p.m. features the Tesfa Combo and an open jam session. The Tesfa Combo features Dejen Tesfagiorgis on Saxophones, Steve Kenny on Trumpet, David Feily on Guitar/Trumpet, Jesse Mueller on Piano, Adam Tucker on Bass, and Aaron Rupar/Scorry Horey on Drums.

Dejen Tesfagiorgis also leads these weekly jam sessions, bring your axe and sit it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4khzBPcgo24
