Friday and Saturday, November 29th & 30th: GRAMMY-Nominated Trumpeter Russell Gunn & Blackhawk

Other Food Other Beer, Wine, Spirits Jazz Music

What’s Happening?

SHOWTIMES: 7:30PM AND 9:30PM. With Louis Heriveaux (piano), Kevin Smith (bass) and Terreon Gulley (drums).

Russell Gunn is widely known for being the primary source of inspiration for this current generation of Jazz musicians.

A two-time Grammy nominee, Russells “Ethnomusicology” series of recordings paved the way for the new sound.

Russell was also the featured trumpeter in the equally influential band “Buckshot LeFonque” headed by Branford

Marsalis, while simultaneously being a featured trumpeter in the early days of Jazz at Lincoln Center.

Russell became the new trumpet sensation in New York when his solo on Wynton Marsalis’ Pulitzer Prize winning

Jazz oratorio “Blood On The Fields” was released. In the time since, Russell founded, composes for, arranges

and conducts the “Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra” and was commissioned by the Apollo Theater in New York for his

large work “The Blues and it’s People”.

Russell Gunn & Blackhawk is jazz at it’s finest. No safety net, no overdubs, just pure heart, soul and fire!
