McG Jazz Orchestra makes triumphant return!


Come hear...
The Pete McGuinness Jazz Orchestra
Featuring Pete’s work as jazz composer/arranger (former BMI student of Bob Brookmeyer), trombonist, and jazz vocalist (past semi-finalist of the Thelonious Monk competition). After years as a sideman, having performed with people such as Maria Schneider, the Woody Herman Big Band, and Jimmy Heath, and having co-lead several other projects, Pete now steps out in front of his own 16-piece modern jazz group. The great musicians/soloists of the band are some of New York’s very best. They are:

Saxes: Dave Pietro, Charles Pillow, Tom Christensen,
Jason Rigby, and Dave Riekenberg

Trumpets: Tony Kadleck, Jon Owens, Bill Mobley, Chris Rogers

Trombones: Bruce Eidem, Mike Christianson, Steve Armour, Jeff Nelson

Rhythm: Mike Holober – piano, Andy Eulau – bass, Scott Neumann –drums

Tuesday, November 21st
“The Garage” Restaurant/Jazz Club
99 7th Ave. South, NYC at Sheridan Sq./Greenwich Village
Sets at: 7pm and 8:45

Hope to see you there.

Fresh off of laying down some swinging tracks, the band returns to throw down LIVE!
