If you weren't at the opening of Bright and Bold at the Southern Coos Hospital, (And why exactly weren't you), you know nothing about the talented musicians of Left Coast Jazz. This is very sad, it's like finding out there's no Easter bunny. But you don't have to morn, weep and wring your hands, because the ole Trawler has gone out and dug up the schedule for the next few shows.
Playing this Friday April 22nd 4 to 7pm at the red fish in pt orford,w bassist Gary Robertson. Also on May 6th w Gary and...May 20th w Julie Hawthorne,at the red fish. April 29 and 30th We'll be The Left Coast Jazz Trio At Bandon Bill's from 6 to 10 PM. Will feature Jan Kaplan and a surprise guest.
Now if you haven't been to the Red Fish in Port Orford, you've missed out again and while you are there, you can take a stroll through the Hawthorne Gallery. But you really are there to listen so don't waste too much time eating.
Now I admit to being an old time lounge act guy and I haven't really found anyone to replace Lana Cantrell or to make me stop and listen up like Ramsey Lewis, until I heard Left Coast Jazz. You can listen, talk, plot, plan or just relax they will wrap you in music and drain your troubles away. This kind of sound usually requires the sin and squalor of the big city, but Left Coast Jazz makes smoky clubs and crowded tables unnecessary, try them once and like me you'll be waiting with a worm on your tongue for their website to be up and running. ((Of course I'll keep you informed until that happens.)
