Hi Jazz Enthusiasts,
I am thrilled to announce the details for our first concert at Club Bonafide on Sunday, November 8. This is a partnership with bassist Richard Bona and his new Manhattan venue. The space itself, formerly the home of Somethin’ Jazz Club, is newly renovated and has a really great vibe. If you can attend our first performance at Club Bonafide, we’ll be thrilled to see you.
For complete information, please see below. Thanks, and I hope all is well!
Sincerely,
Javier
