David Watson's Rebirthing the Cool: Bebop & Beyond Big Band

Expand

Christo's Lounge

David "Doc" Watson is bringing back the Cool for a limited engagement at Christo's, after his big move to Kansas City. So let's give him a proper Christo's return, you dig?

Re-Birthing The Cool, Bebop N Beyond has evolved into a very impressive group, one that not only plays the West Coast cool jazz reflected in the first half of their name but other areas of music including New Orleans R&B, blues, hard bop and ballads. The lineup features of some of the very best jazz musicians based in Portland: baritonist Pete Petersen, Mary-Sue Tobin on alto and soprano, tenor-saxophonist Brian Myers, trumpeter Paul Mazzio, trombonist James Powers, Mark Vehrencamp on tuba, pianist David Kim, bassist Ed Bennett and drummer Rivkah Ross.

The incredible sight and sound of his 10 piece band is an experience like no other, especially when in the context of our intimate lounge!
