Three top notch Boston musicians come together for a very special LEAP YEAR evening of the best in jazz!
Feldman Geospatial has created a superb 'critic's choice' jazz and Latin music series at Long Live Roxbury, a new and hip craft brewery and taproom located at 152 Hampden Street in Boston. And all of it is FREE of charge. It's a beautiful gift from Feldman Geospatial to the neighborhood communities who love great live music in Boston and beyond.
“It has always been my dream to bring high quality jazz and world music to our building in Roxbury, and by making it free to all we are hoping to continue to create a community space for food, drinks, arts and culture for everyone to enjoy,” said Michael Feldman, Chief Executive Officer of Feldman Geospatial.
Acoustic and electric bassist John Lockwoodhas toured the U.S. and Europe with Joe Henderson, Freddie Hubbard, Gary Burton, the Mel Lewis Big Band and The Fringe. He has also performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic, the Boston Pops, MIT Symphony, Pat Metheny, Dizzy Gillespie, Woody Shaw, Toots Thielemans, Stan Getz and Art Farmer.
Drummer, composer and educator Mark Walker has been one of the most respected names on the jazz scene for four decades. He has performed on five continents with some of the best musicians in
the world and appears on over 75 recordings, including two Grammy® Award-winning albums, four Latin Grammy®-winning albums, seven Grammy®-nominated albums and one Latin Grammy®-nominated album.
Tim Ray’s wide-ranging skills as a soloist and accompanist have afforded him the opportunity to perform with legendary performers from all walks of music. Ray served as music director and pianist for the legendary Tony Bennett from 2016 until the singer's retirement in 2021. Before that, he performed on the road with singer-songwriter Lyle Lovett, touring for more than 15 years. Appearing on over 100 recordings, Ray has performed in concert with an extensive list of pop-music icons, notably Aretha Franklin, Bonnie Raitt, Jane Siberry, and Soul Asylum. He regularly performs with leading figures in the jazz world, among them Terri Lyne Carrington, Gary Burton, Esperanza Spalding, Kurt Elling, George Garzone, Dave Douglas, Lewis Nash ,and Brian Blade, and his classical credits include solo performances and concerts with the Boston Pops, Gunther Schuller, and the Boston Modern Orchestra Project.
