SPECIAL UPDATE--JUKE JOINT JAZZ IS NOW FULLY VACCINATED AND READY TO PLAY YOUR SPECIAL JAZZ EVENT!!! Juke Joint Jazz plays their own moving and melodic arrangements of the classic modern jazz repertoire. Featuring several accomplished soloists with influences ranging from Miles Davis to the Grateful Dead, from Monk to Funk, the band plays an eclectic mix of works from an international cast of composers. Our musicians have an average of more than 20 years experience, and several are teachers of music in area colleges. Ken Forfia—piano; David Kisala—saxophone; Michael Levine—guitar; George Kaye—bass and Clark Seibold—drums. JJJ plays regularly in jazz clubs in Western Massachusetts, and recently opened the NORTHAMPTON JAZZ FESTIVAL on September 11, 2015 with a concert at The Iron Horse Music Hall with The Charles Neville Jazz Quartet. Our group members are all veteran, accomplished players. We play entire weddings--cocktail hour, dinner music, dance sets, and corporate events and private parties as well. We have the flexibility to play as a trio--Guitar, Piano, Acoustic Bass; as a quartet or as a quintet--our standard, and preferred configuration. We can produce a set list to your tastes and specifications, and dress according to your requirements. Come see us play live for a solid taste of our music. Check our latest info at our website. You can now hear several tracks of our newly released CD "Live At The Arts Block" on Gigmasters. IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR OWN COPY OF OUR LIVE CD, SEND A POSTAL ADDRESS AND YOU CAN HEAR WHAT WE ACTUALLY SOUND LIKE! Thanks for looking and listening! Note about location: The 100 mile radius covers quite a bit of territory not mentioned in the Gigmasters profile--Boston, Providence, Greenwich, Albany, Lenox, Brattleboro, Putney, Nashua, and everywhere in between! We are New England's premier Jazz Quintet and play events and shows throughout the 6 NE states plus NY.
