SUMMARY:NAT REEVES SEXTET
DESCRIPTION:Nat Reeves brings his sextet to The Side Door\, the same all-star group from his new album Now in Time. For over 40 years\, Nat Reeves has been one of the most respected bassists in jazz. Early in his career he performed with Jackie McLean\, Benny Golson\, Donald Byrd\, Art Taylor\, Mulgrew Miller\, Kenny Kirkland\, and Kenny Drew. He became a longtime member of Kenny Garrett’s group beginning in 1994\, and has worked and recorded with Pharoah Sanders\, George Coleman\, Harold Mabern\, George Cables\, and Joe Farnsworth\, among many others. He has released three albums as a leader\, State of Emergency\, Blue Ridge\, and now Now in Time\, released April 17\, 2026 on Cellar Live. \nNow in Time brings together an extraordinary lineup spanning multiple generations of jazz\, twelve tracks running just over an hour that move comfortably between Reeves’ own original compositions and a thoughtful selection of standards\, including “On Green Dolphin Street\,” “Alice in Wonderland\,” and a tribute to Marvin Gaye with “The Creator Has a Master Plan.” Throughout the record\, Reeves’ bass acts as a quiet narrator\, steering the music’s direction with the kind of unhurried confidence that comes from four decades on the bandstand. Critics have praised the album as a recording that rewards close\, attentive listening\, one that resists the pace of casual consumption and instead invites listeners to settle into a long evening built on the trust and shared musical language of these six players. \nT \nhis is a rare chance to hear the album’s celebrated lineup perform the music live\, in an intimate setting. \nThe Band:\nNat Reeves – Bass\nEric Alexander – Tenor Saxophone\nSteve Davis – Trombone\nEddie Henderson – Trumpet\nCaelan Cardello – Piano\nJeff “Tain” Watts – Drums \nCover: $38.57

SUMMARY:MONTY ALEXANDER
DESCRIPTION:Nearly sixty years after he moved to the United States from Kingston\, Jamaica\, his hometown\, GRAMMY® nominated pianist Monty Alexander is an American classic\, touring the world relentlessly with various projects\, delighting a global audience drawn to his vibrant personality and soulful message. A perennial favorite at Jazz festivals and venues worldwide and at the Montreux Jazz Festival where he has appeared 23 times since 1976\, his spirited conception is one informed by the timeless verities: endless melody-making\, effervescent grooves\, sophisticated voicings\, a romantic spirit\, and a consistent predisposition. \nIn the course of any given performance\, Alexander applies those aesthetics to a repertoire spanning a broad range of jazz and Jamaican musical expressions—the American songbook and the blues\, gospel and bebop\, calypso and reggae. Documented on more than 75 recordings and cited as the fifth greatest jazz pianist ever in The Fifty Greatest Jazz Piano Players of All Time (Hal Leonard Publishing)\, the Jamaican government designated Alexander Commander in the Order of Distinction in 2000 and conferred on him the national honor of the Order of Jamaica in 2022 for “Sterling Contributions to the Promotions of Jamaican Music and the Jazz Genre Interpretations Globally”. \nThe Trio:\nMonty Alexander\, piano\nLorin Cohen\, bass\nJason Brown\, drums \nCover: $45.00 ~ $55.00 +fees | Streaming: $15.00 +fee
