Tribute to John Coltrane & Blue Ox Quintet

This Saturday on “Saturday Night Jazz at KJ’s Hideaway” we are presenting a double header with an opening set by a fantastic young band called the Blue Ox Quintet including rising star saxophonist and activist Jerome Treadwell, and then the very popular ‘Tribute to John Coltrane’ show, which is a special very high energy and high spiritual performance of some of the more powerful compositions by John Coltrane. It Features Kevin Washington on drums, a noted Coltrane scholar and one of the most famous Minnesota Jazz musicians. Joining him will be past and current members of the Jazz ensemble “Central Standard Time”. This show has sold out its New Year’s Eve performances for years and this is a special chance to hear this material played by these musicians in the idyllic setting of kj’s hideaway.

 I am excited to perform on the headliner show of this new series at kj’s hideaway for the first time. It’s a fantastic venue with great sightlines, sound, and lighting, a great menu with full bar service.
