Coming up this weekend at TBT:
Waberi Jordan
Blues / Jazz / Singer / Songwriter
September 13th @ 8-10 pm $10
Many have likened her to legends like Nina Simone, Roberta Flack,
Cassandra Wilson, and contemporaries like Laura Mvula; but the
comparison is not solely in the sound of Waberi Jordan’s voice, but in
the legacy she exhibits.
More than a beautiful voice and a guitar, Waberi performs music
that is reflective of a complex narrative, gently sculpted around jazz,
blues, and her own style that makes Jordan highly sought after as a
featured vocalist and collaborator. Some of the most innovative and
exciting new musicians, from multiple genres, has garnered Waberi a
swiftly growing international audience from Los Angeles and New York to
UK, France and Amsterdam.

Eric Mintel
Jazz Quartet
September 14th @ 8-10 pm $25
The Eric Mintel Quartet isn’t a cover or tribute band playing rote
renditions of familiar songs, but a group of highly skilled musicians
breathing new life into jazz classics. Their take on Dave Brubeck’s
music is well worth the price of admission, but they aren’t a one-trick
pony. When they played “Take the A Train,” their interpretation took the
audience’s breath away. Then they played “Caravan” as a very rewarding
encore. The four of them are so talented; I think they could make great
jazz out of any song. In their hands, jazz is certainly not dead or a
museum piece. Highly recommended, – Andy
