Bassist Billy Peterson keeps it moving, touring as a member of the Steve Miller Band, fly fishing in Montana and conducting various confidential and top-secret missions. And that makes this meeting with old pal Kenny Horst (drums) and young piano wiz Tanner Taylor something of an event. Pianist Tanner Taylor moved to the Twin Cities from Jefferson, Iowa, in 2001, and Minnesota jazz fans’ jaws have been dropping ever since.  Kenny Horst is the heartbeat of the AQ both on and off the stage and a master of the trap set. Come out for this special night of top-shelf, solid jazz by three of Minnesota's finest practitioners.

An early set at 7 p.m. features "The Tesfa Quintet" with Dejen Tesfagiorgis on Saxophones, Adam Meckler on Trumpet, Jesse Mueller on Piano, Adam Tucker on Bass, and Jaky Nyberg on Drums.
