On Saturday, February 29th at 9 and 10:30 pm, we conclude our African American History Month celebrations with pianist Bad Alan Palmer and his trio which features bassist Ameen Salim and drummer Taru Alexander.

Alan Palmer, who has that adjective in front of his name because the great Jackie McLean thought it appropriate, performs on a date that only happens every four years. That is totally in keeping with the way he plays which is rare, beautiful and yet totally in keeping with some mystical reality. The musicians he has chosen are top shelf and are going to make this a night to remember.
