Wednesday, July 16, Phil Hey Quartet (9 pm, $5) |
|
The Phil Hey Quartet features Dave Hagedorn on vibes, Phil Aaron on piano, Tom Lewis on bass and Phil on drums and has been an Artists' Quarter favorite for the past 6 years. No surprise really. This is a no-nonsense, uncompromising band of local jazz greats regularly performing the tunes of Kenny Wheeler, Bobby Hutcherson, John Coltrane, and Wayne Shorter and others. Over the years they have attracted a loyal following of hardcore jazz fans and students who show up on the monthly Thursday night when they perform. Check out these videos clips from recent AQ performances:

Friday, July 17 - Saturday, July 18, Pete Whitman Quartet (9 pm, $10). |
|
Saxophonist Pete Whitman’s long list of credentials includes touring the world with the Glenn Miller Orchestra and receiving a 4-star review in DownBeat magazine (for his X-tet’s release Where’s When?). The man can swing. He holds two degrees from the prestigious University of North Texas jazz studies program, but his electrifying performances exhibit far more than book learnin’. Come down for a master class at the school of hard bop. |
