The Jazz Voyager

There’s nothing like New York City anytime of year but autumn is one of the best. The Jazz Voyager is staying put this week in the Village at the Washington Square Hotel. Just a short walk from the hotel is the legendary Village Vanguard, home to their long-running orchestra which was started by Thad Wilson and Mel Lewis, the iconic basement location that has hosted decades of the greatest and up and coming jazz musicians and vocalists.

Ethan Iverson is holding down the piano bench for this week’s entertainment along with saxophonist Sam Newsome, trumpeter Johnathan Finlayson, Jacob Garchik on trombone, bassist Peter Washington and drummer. His residency lasts through Sunday, October 5th with two sets each night. As usual I’ll be at the second seating.
