Jazz @ Bull & Whistle (Old Mill-Lebanon)

Thursday, July 15, 2010 6:30 pm CDT

Description: Jazz @t the Bull & Whistle in the Old Mill

Alto saxman Paul Desmond once remarked that, "I think I had it in the back of my mind that I wanted to sound like a dry martini."

While the Bull & Whistle serves both gin and vodka, the Glenn Martin Quartet, minus Glenn, will capture the sound of four splashes of vermouth this Thursday evening . We promise jazz tunes that have been around for many years, with an solemn oath not to cover anything by Lady Gaga or, well....you know.

Mr. Desmond once remarked, when asked how he got his melodious tone, "I honestly don't know! It has something to do with the fact that I play illegally." The only illegal thing will be the smile on our faces.

Playing legal tunes will be Tiger Fitzhugh, guitar, Hugh Bramhall, drums and congas, Ryan Williams, guitar, and Wayne Renardson, acoustic bass. Some of the usual suspects are sure to show up to sit in, and jazz players are invited to join us. A setlist is available from Wayne at: wayne@renardson.org

The group will begin playing 6:30 and knock off a few hours later.
