One of the great privileges we’ve had at Barking Legs over the past decade or so has been the opportunity to present the music of saxophonist Greg Tardy. Since he last performed for us, Greg’s star has continued to rise through his role as saxophonist in the Bill Frisell Quartet. The pairing with Frisell, who is one of the most influential musicians in contemporary jazz, is also documented on a beautiful duo recording, More Than Enough.
For this special Wednesday jazz on the main stage, Greg will be joined by the Italian pianist—and now Barking Legs favorite—Margherita Fava, Rob Linton on bass and Dave Potter on drums will be dealing strong stuff for sure.
If you have even a passing interest in contemporary jazz, you really need to see this show. If you’ve heard Greg before, you almost certainly want to hear this show. John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter and many other greats are now only to be heard on recordings. Experience Greg Tardy live!
Doors open at 6:30, music at 7:30.
This is an all ages show.
