SUMMARY:Randy Napoleon Organ Trio featuring Ben Paterson
DESCRIPTION:Showtimes are at 7:30p & 9:30p. Doors open at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “Dinner & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 9pm.\nBorn in Brooklyn and raised in Ann Arbor\, Michigan\, Randy Napoleon began his journey in jazz immediately after finishing his studies at the University of Michigan. Jeff Hamilton of the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra invited the young Napoleon to do a series of performances with them at the Hollywood Bowl. From there\, Napoleon’s career took off\, first touring with pianist Benny Green nationally and internationally for a year\, and then full time with the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. A three-year stint with crooner Michael Buble followed; Napoleon is featured on Buble’s Grammy-nominated CD “Caught in the Act.” \nGuitarist George Benson calls Napoleon “sensational.” Detroit Free Press critic Mark Stryker says Napoleon “plays with a gentle\, purring tone that makes you lean in close to hear its range of color and articulation.” Washington Post critic Mike Joyce praises his “exceptionally nimble finger-style technique.” Comparing him to Wes Montgomery\, music critic Michael G. Nastos says\, “he displays an even balance of swing\, soul\, and single-line or chord elements that mark an emerging voice dedicated to tradition and universally accessible jazz values.” \nNapoleon currently tours with the legendary singer/pianist\, Freddy Cole\, and is featured on Cole’s 2009 album\, “Live at Dizzy’s Club: The Dreamer in Me.“ He is the main arranger and the guitarist on “Freddy Cole Sings Mr. B\,” a 2010 Grammy-nominated release from High Note that features songs from the Billy Eckstine song book\, as well as on “Talk to Me\,” Cole’s 2011 album\, and Cole’s most recent album “This and That.” \nToday\, Napoleon is one of the most sought-after guitarists in New York\, where he is known as a forward-thinking musician with a passion for the jazz guitar tradition. In addition to backing the best\, he leads his own bands\, an organ trio\, a trombone trio\, a quartet with piano\, and a three-horn sextet that includes organ\, drums\, trumpet\, tenor sax\, and trombone. \nFeaturing Organist Ben Paterson\n\n\n\n“As soulful a pianist / organist as exists anywhere.” – Downbeat Magazine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Combining a joyful swing feel with an impeccable touch\, Steinway Artist Ben Paterson has established himself as one of the most exciting pianists on the Jazz scene today\, garnering international acclaim for his superb musicianship and engaging performances. Whether playing lush ballads on the piano\, digging into some hard-driving blues-tinged organ jazz on the Hammond B3\, or singing classic tunes by the likes of Ray Charles and Nat King Cole\, Ben combines effortless technique with soulful honesty\, drawing in both aficionados and Jazz neophytes alike. \nOriginally from Philadelphia\, Ben studied both classical and Jazz music before moving to the great city of Chicago\, absorbing the unique blend of Jazz and Blues that can only be found in the Windy City. Now based in New York\, Ben is poised to bring his unique talents and style to a wider audience\, performing regularly at top notch venues around town\, and at clubs and festivals around the world. \n  \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Fonville x Fribush
DESCRIPTION:Performances are at 5:30p & 7:30p. Doors open at 4pm for dinner. Seating begins at 5pm for “Dinner & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 7pm.\nPresale tickets available HERE on May 7th \nFonville x Fribush is the brand new musical collaboration from acclaimed drummer Corey Fonville (Butcher Brown) and in-demand organist Sam Fribush. Like a hip-hop link up from the 90s\, the pair’s collective ear\, musical talents and friendship pushes the limits of the organ trio sound into a more youthful\, tasty style of blue collar jazz. The trio features a rotating cast of guitarists\, including Charlie Hunter\, Alan Good Parker and Morgan Burrs. Songs like “I Couldn’t Love You More” and “Blue Chips” immerse audiences in Atlantic Coast soundscapes of their hometown roots in North Carolina and Virginia.  \nCorey Fonville climbed the ranks among the East Coast’s most sought-after drummers and producers for hip-hop\, jazz and R&B in recent years. As a founding member of Butcher Brown\, he’s performed on NPR’s Tiny Desk and toured the world\, in addition to musical collaborations with ESPN and producing albums for artists like Ledesi\, DJ Jazzy Jeff and more.  \nSam Fribush is also one of the freshest young bandleaders and collaborators\, known for his signature aesthetic and voice – a vintage 1957 C3 Hammond Organ. “Our intention is to take this music into the future\,” Fribush says. “We’re trying to expand the rules about what organ trios can do.” \nListen to the debut Fonville x Fribush EP – ‘R&B Organ Trio’ featuring Charlie Hunter – out New Year’s Day\, January 1\, 2026. Fonville x Fribush will also drop their debut LP\, ‘What Day Is It’ featuring Alan Good Parker\, available exclusively on vinyl via WarHen Records.  \n \n

SUMMARY:Cyrus Chestnut 
DESCRIPTION:Showtimes are at 5:30p & 7:30p. Doors open at 4:30pm for dinner. Seating begins at 5pm for “Dinner & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 7pm.\nFeaturing: \n Sean Dobbins\, drums \nLaura Simone\, bass \n\n\n\nCyrus Chestnut is one of the most gifted and innovative jazz pianists of his generation. With a musical style that effortlessly combines the influences of gospel\, classical music\, and straight-ahead jazz\, Chestnut has garnered acclaim from critics and peers alike for his soulful\, virtuosic playing. His career spans decades of performances and recordings\, establishing him as a pivotal figure in contemporary jazz. \n \nRaised in the heart of Baltimore in a musical family\, Chestnut’s gospel roots have been a key influence on his musical development. His father\, a pianist\, and his mother\, a singer\, were both deeply involved in the church\, where Chestnut first encountered the powerful\, emotional connection between music and spirituality. This early exposure to gospel music provided him with a rich\, emotive foundation that continues to permeate his jazz performances\, infusing them with a soulful\, dynamic energy that resonates deeply with audiences. Chestnut has often described how the gospel tradition taught him not only how to play the piano but also how to connect with listeners on a deeper\, more emotional level. He has said\, “I want to spread some feel good… I want to be able to spread the feel good”—a sentiment that echoes the uplifting\, transformative nature of gospel music. \n \nChestnut’s talent is further showcased in his most recent album\, Rhythm\, Melody\, and Harmony\, released on April 25\, 2025\, via HighNote Records. This piano quartet recording demonstrates his signature blend of rhythmic precision\, emotive expression\, and improvisational mastery. Joined by saxophonist Stacy Dillard\, bassist Gerald Cannon\, and drummer Chris Beck\, Chestnut continues to push boundaries with his original compositions\, which form the core of this album. The album adds to his already impressive discography\, which includes critically acclaimed works like Kaleidoscope and My Father’s Hands.
