THE JOE LOCKE GROUP W/KENNY WASHINGTON

Vibraphonist Joe Locke and vocalist Kenny Washington bring their long-standing jazz credentials to bear on the music of some of our most well-loved pop, rock and soul artists in an evening of music that’s guaranteed to land in your head, heart, and below-the-waist.

Joe’s arrangements and his tightly-knit quartet provide the framework for Kenny to shine on some classic hits by Sam Cooke, Bill Withers, Steely Dan, India Arie, Billy Joel and Stevie Wonder, among many others. Considering the fact that Todd Barkan, Keystone Korner’s artistic director, was responsible for Joe and Kenny’s very first collaboration 15 years ago, this is going to feel like a homecoming. Don’t miss it!

CYRUS CHESTNUT TRIO

The New York Daily News once heralded Chestnut as the rightful heir to Bud Powell, Art Tatum and Erroll Garner. In an interview on National Public Radio (NPR) for All Things Considered, Chestnut remarked, “If I can send one person home after a performance feeling better than when they arrived, then I’ve done my job, and I sleep good at night.”

To this day, Chestnut attends church every Sunday. He told CBS News, “If I’m not working, you’ll find me in somebody’s church.” Chestnut continually tours with his trio, playing live at jazz festivals around the world as well as clubs and concert halls.

His leadership and prowess as a soloist has also led him to be a first call for the piano chair in many big bands including the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, and the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band.

Showtimes are 7:00 pm & 9:30 pm
