NYC: NICHOLAS PAYTON AT BIRDLAND
Nicholas Payton will perform Tuesday through Saturday, October 11th through 15th at BIRDLAND (315 West 44th Street, NYC - 212-581-3080) with shows at 8:30 & 11:00 pm. Since 1994 when Nicholas Payton made his recording debut as a leader with "From This Moment," the trumpeter has been lauded as one of the leading young instrumental voices in jazz. Even though he started out as a "young lion," one of the new generation guardians of the swing and bebop flames, the 38-year-old Payton has devoted himself to discovering sounds outside of strict traditional confines. Having grown up in a family and community of musicians in New Orleans, Payton has built his unique voice by melding a post-bop foundation, a heavy emphasis on groove, a soulful history and various experimental elements. There is a $30-40 cover plus a $10 food/drink minimum.
