In 2013 Redman released Walking Shadows, his most “sublimely lyrical” album yet (The New York Times). Redman has been nominated for two Grammy Awards and has garnered top honors in critics and readers polls of DownBeat, Jazz Times, The Village Voice, and Rolling Stone. The quartet includes three internationally acclaimed musicians: jazz pianist Aaron Goldberg—who Wynton Marsalis describes as “a modern improviser of great clarity, finesse, and dexterity”—bassist Reuben Rogers, who is renowned for his expressive abilities, and percussionist Gregory Hutchinson who was lauded by Jazz Magazine as “the drummer of his generation.” Video: Joshua Redman Quartet 1964 The Tribute Tuesday, February 11, 2014 at 8 pm $38-$42 Salute the 50th anniversary of The Fab Four’s first live U.S. performance in D.C. with some “Rock and Roll Music” from the “Best Beatles Tribute on Earth” (Rolling Stone). Relive this milestone show with these master recreators who mimic the onstage banter, instruments, and fashion of the original British rockers. Hear Beatles’ songs from the pre-Sgt. Pepper era, such as “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Drive My Car.” The Tribute headlines more than 120 shows around the globe each year, including numerous television appearances including Fox News and The Early Show on CBS. The band includes Mark Benson (John Lennon), Mac Ruffing (Paul McCartney), Tom Work (George Harrison), and Bobby Potter (Ringo Starr). “1964 creates the magic of The Beatles.”—Dick Clark Video: 1964 The Tribute –“In My Life” Buckwheat Zydeco General Admission Thursday, February 13, 2014 at 8 pm $28 Louisiana-born Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural first began playing funk music in 1971 with his 15- piece band, Buckwheat and the Hitchhikers. In 1976 he was brought on tour as an organist with zydeco king Clifton Chenier, who taught Dural accordion and inspired his shift to zydeco music. Since its formation in 1979 Buckwheat Zydeco has performed with legendary artists such as Eric Clapton, has performed at prestigious events including both of President Clinton’s inaugurations, and has been featured in numerous film soundtracks including The Waterboy and The Big Easy. “Stanley ‘Buckwheat’ Dural leads one of the best bands in America. Buckwheat’s band released the Grammy-winning album Lay Your Burden Down in 2009, which features Trombone Shorty and Sonny Landreth. A down-home and high powered celebration, meaty and muscular with a fine-tuned sense of dynamics.”—The New York Times Video: Buckwheat Zydeco – “Hey Ma Petit Fille” Chaise Lounge Love and Kisses, Swings and Misses A Valentine’s Day Celebration Friday, February 14, 2014 at 8 pm $25 D.C.-based Chaise Lounge is known for its smooth ‘60s-inspired big-band jazz with a “sound that is musically tight and always swinging” (Fanfare Magazine). The group’s 2013 album Dot Dot Dot showcases singer Marilyn Older’s “perennially slinky, sultry, sexy near-babydoll voice beside five highly talented and letter perfect instrumentalists.” Chaise Lounge has collaborated with the McLean Orchestra, the Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra, Capital City Symphony, and hard rock/punk band Adam West. Outside the band, Older has contributed songs to several independent films, and Barnett has composed scores for more than 400 TV and theatrical films including music for National Geographic and The Discovery Channel. Video: Chaise Lounge – “The Coolest Car I Ever Saw” John Eaton The Fabulous Forties Saturday, February 15, 2014 at 7:30 pm $25-$27 This renowned jazz pianist showcases a reverent and inventive take on the Great American Songbook. In his salute to the music of the 1940s, Eaton promises to infuse his signature style in the legendary songs of that era, including hits from some of its most prolific big band and jazz musicians including Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington, and Glenn Miller.

  • Peter Novelli Peternovelli.Com
    Peter Novelli peternovelli.com Guitarist / singer / songwriter Peter Novelli is based in New Orleans. The Peter Novelli Band plays Louisiana roots and blues, a blend of blues-rock-R&B-funk with some zydeco-cajun influences. Novelli’s CD Louisiana Roots & Blues (June 12 release) with his core rhythm section Darryl White (drums, formerly w/ Tab Benoit and Chris Thomas King), Chris Chew (bass, North Mississippi Allstars), Joe Krown (B3 and piano, formerly w/ late Gatemouth Brown), and special guests Chubby Carrier (Grammy-winning zydeco accordionist), Chris Thomas King (lap slide guitar, Grammy “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou”), Shamarr Allen (trumpet) and Elaine and Lisa Foster on vocals. Novelli’s debut CD, produced by bassist David Hyde, hit the charts within a month of release and gathered widespread critical acclaim. His originals, with a few selected covers, made a journey through Louisiana-American blues-roots music. Guests include Dr. John, Paul Barrere, Augie Meyers, the late Gatemouth Brown’s rhythm section, and top Lousiana musicians. The CD includes an historical Tribute To Slim Harpo, with members of Harpo’s band including James Johnson, and interviews with Johnson, the late Raful Neal and “Big” Johnny Thomassie. Novelli started violin at age 6, picked up guitar at 14 after hearing a BB King record. The intensity, passion and raw emotional content of some of the blues masters (black and white, American and British) stuck in his ear and that is what drives him to this day. He likes to combine this feel with harmonic ideas of jazz, the relentless groove of zydeco, and just about any cool and unusual style of music or rhythm that works.

  • Joshua Redman Bio
    JOSHUA REDMAN BIO Joshua Redman is one of the most acclaimed and charismatic jazz artists to have emerged in the decade of the 1990s. Born in Berkeley, California, he is the son of legendary saxophonist Dewey Redman and dancer Renee Shedroff. He was exposed at an early age to a variety of musics (jazz, classical, rock, soul, Indian, Indonesian, Middle-Eastern, African) and instruments (recorder, piano, guitar, gatham, gamelan), and began playing clarinet at age nine before switching to what became his primary instrument, the tenor saxophone, one year later. The early influences of John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, Cannonball Adderley and his father, Dewey Redman, as well as The Beatles, Aretha Franklin, the Temptations, Earth, Wind and Fire, Prince, The Police and Led Zeppelin drew Joshua more deeply into music. But although Joshua loved playing the saxophone and was a dedicated member of the award-winning Berkeley High School Jazz Ensemble and Combo from 1983-86, academics were always his first priority, and he never seriously considered becoming a professional musician. In 1991 Redman graduated from Harvard College summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa with a B.A. in Social Studies. He had already been accepted by Yale Law School, but deferred entrance for what he believed was only going to be one year. Some of his friends (former students at the Berklee College of Music whom Joshua had met while in Boston) had recently relocated to Brooklyn, and they were looking for another housemate to help with the rent. Redman accepted their invitation to move in, and almost immediately he found himself immersed in the New York jazz scene.
