NYC guitar master Ben Sher is well know to international audiences, as well as Boston listeners (he is a professor of guitar at Boston's famed berklee College) but does not get to Westport very often. He presents a compelling blend of both the jazz and authentic Brazilian guitar traditions. His history with me (Greg) dates back to the early 80's.
Joe and I are joined by a great rhythm section- bassist Joe Fitzgerald (performances with  Pat Metheny, Wallace Roney, Bob Mintzer and Dave Liebman) and killing drummer Bob Meyer (Joe Lovano, John Abercrombie, Gary Peacock).
Don't miss this one.

Kenny Wessel, known throughout the world for his adventurous solo voice, unrelenting swing, and sensitive accompaniment skills, has become an audience favorite here at the Jazz Inferno. He and I have been playing together since the early nineties! He iOS the rare blend of tradition and fiery innovation-it doesn't get any better!
With Joe Fitzgerald on bass and Scott Neumann on drums, there won't be a still foot in the joint!
NO COVER CHARGE,  reservations highly recommended
