SUMMARY:The Music of Django Reinhardt with the Ryan Picone Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Doors open at 5:00 PM for Dinner and Drink Service.\n\n\nThe Music of Django Reinhardt\nDjango Reinhardt collaborated with several vocalists throughout his career. This show features those pivotal interactions with Jean Sablon\, Edith Piaf\, and Freddy Taylor. \nDr. Ryan Picone: Lead Guitar \nTessa Nichols Meade: Violin \nCarl Johnson: Rhythm Guitar \nMatt Blake: Bass \nFeaturing Vocalists Victoria Temiz & Magge Black! \nThe Ryan Picone Quartet is a group that was put together to showcase the original compositions of Ryan Picone. The music has been written throughout different time periods in his life\, and represents his connection to the music of Django Reinhardt. The band consists of Ryan Picone from The Red Hot Django Peppers\, Ian Stenlund from The Mississippi Hot Club\, Tessa Nichols Meade from the Cold City Heat\, and Matt Blake from the Gentleman’s Anti Temperance League. This group is an all star group that brings together a new transfiguration of Jazz.In 2023 the Ryan Picone Quartet released their debut album titled – I Awake dedicated to the legendary Django Reinhardt. The album has received great praise from the Django community including author Michael Dregni. In 2024 RPQ played their first Django Festival along side with musicians like Joscho Stephan and Sam Farthing. \nMinneapolis jazz vocalist Victoria Temiz brings warmth\, nuance\, and a storyteller’s touch to every performance. Rooted in early jazz and the Great American Songbook\, her singing blends elegance with emotional clarity\, evoking the intimacy of a bygone era while feeling distinctly her own. Trained in classical voice from an early age\, Victoria earned her Bachelor’s degree in Vocal Performance from Duquesne University before falling in love with jazz’s expressive freedom. Inspired by the phrasing of Ella Fitzgerald and the cinematic beauty of French chanson\, she brings both refinement and heart to the stage. She has performed throughout the Twin Cities and beyond\, including appearances at the Twin Cities Jazz Festival and New York’s Gotham Jazz Festival and regularly appears with her duo Clover Club\, exploring the charm and swing of early jazz and blues. \nMaggie Black is a piano based singer songwriter from Chicago\, whose eclectic style draws from influences such as Suzanne Vega\, Jeff Buckley\, Fiona Apple\, Leonard Cohen\, and Amy Winehouse. She is currently recording her first album on an 8 track with the help of the musical maverick Dev Jana. If you ask her about this project she might retreat into the nearest snail’s shell and raise a sign that reads “please come back when I’m done\,” but she promises it’ll be done soon. \nReview by author; Michael Dregni. “Swinging\, sensual\, moody\, rousing — Ryan Picone Quartet’s music follows the trail of Django Reinhardt’s Gypsy jazz. Listening to these tracks\, you can almost smell the campfire smoke and see the nighttime lights of Paris burning on the horizon. Bon voyage!”\nwww.ryanpicone.com

SUMMARY:John Scofield’s Electrospective
DESCRIPTION:“Scofield is one of the most prolific and admired jazz musicians of his generation” – NPR\n  \nThrough his fifty-four-year career\, three-time Grammy Award winner John Scofield has occasionally detoured from the traditions of straight-ahead jazz. There\, he explores a blend of funk and jazz that has led to some of his most popular projects. In 2026\, Scofield looks back at many of his now classic fusion groove compositions with Electrospective.  \nNot intending to replicate earlier fan favorites\, he plans instead to revisit them with the seasoned perspective of several decades. Here\, he culls tunes from his Blue Matter\, Uberjam\, and AGoGo bands\, each responsible for a few recordings. Additionally\, he will play new material in the same vein.  \nMoreover\, Scofield looks forward to teaming up with a stellar band of colleagues. Electrospective will rely on interpretative input from Scofield alum and super funk drummer/producer Adam Deitch (Lettuce). Also\, multidimensional Larry Goldings (Scary Goldings\, James Taylor) on keyboards. Additionally\, legendary bassist Oteil Burbridge (Dead & Co.\, Tedeschi Trucks\, Allman Brothers). With this repertoire so frequently (and loudly) requested by audience members\, Scofield is glad to have a band that will truly do the music justice. \nRecommended for fans of Pat Metheny\, Lettuce\, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe and Medeski\, Martin & Wood.
