Guitars & Sax
Saturday, August 9 - 8 pm
Gerald Albright
Master saxophonist Gerald Albright is known for his percussive, soulful interpretation of both contemporary and straight-ahead jazz. His CD, Pleasures of the Night, also demonstrated his ability as a songwriter and producer, and his latest, Groovology, combines elements of jazz, funk and searing R&B.
Peter White
Guitarist Peter White brings his intimately engaging style and wry humor to the evening. Although White is often recognized for his adept skills as a guitarist, he firmly believes in the importance of presenting a great song over great musicianship. "My manager once told me not to let the playing get in the way of the song and I've always remembered that," recalled White. White's latest CD on Sony Records, Playin' Favorites, marks his tenth solo release.
Jeff Golub
After three acclaimed and popular Bluemoon/Atlantic albums with his band, Avenue Blue, guitarist Jeff Golub has decided to fly solo. "OUT OF THE BLUE" finds Golub stepping out front with an all-new collection of progressive blues-inflected instrumentals, fit to burst with funky Latin-tinged rhythms, soulful melodies and dramatic arrangements. Tracks such as the smokin' "Lucky Strike" and the sleek and sultry single, "The Velvet Touch," display Golub's ever-growing musical maturity and offer ample proof that he is one of today's most inventive and graceful guitarists.
Jeff Lorber
With a unique instrumental sound bringing together elements of funk, R&B, rock and electric jazz, legendary keyboardist Jeff Lorber helped pioneer the smooth jazz format since his 1976 debut album. This year's CD, Philly Style, features a Lorber favorite, "Uncle Darrow's," which brings together legendary sax man, Gary Meek, and trumpeter, Ron King, for a brassy, Crusaders-type vibe.
