JACQUES LESURE JAM SESSION

Jacques is a Detroit native currently residing in Inglewood, California. His classic style along with his innovative yet sincere approach to the music are integral [arts of his signature sound.  It’s a sound steeped in the rich tradition of mentors like George Benson, Kenny Burrell, and a host of others, but expressly through his own voice. It’s no secret that his music is rooted in the foundations of gospel, blues and improvised Black American music. It’s his belief that the sounds of “today” are equally as relevant as those of glorious days gone by. It is that synergy that makes his music swing with a style like no other.

Mr. Lesure is proudly associated with the prestigious WJ3 Records imprint and now has three recordings as an artist on the label. All have received great reviews including a four star rating by DownBeat magazine and one of the “Top 100” on the Jazz Week chart. He is an honorary member of GHJazz Collective where they are keeping jazz alive in Accra, Ghana at +233 Jazz Bar & Grill.

Jam Session takes place every Monday at 8:00pm through January (16, 23, 30)
