NYC: FREDDY COLE AT BIRDLAND
Freddy Cole will perform at BIRDLAND (315 West 44th Street, NYC - 212-581-3080) on Tuesday through Saturday, June 3rd through 7th with shows at 8:30 & 11:00 pm. Freddy Cole doesn't apologize for sounding like his brother, Nat "King" Cole. There are certain unmistakable similarities. He plays piano, sings and performs live with guitar and upright bass, just like Nat. Yet his voice is raspier, smokier, jazzier even. But he has emerged from the great shadow cast by his elder brother. In truth, his phrasing is far closer to that of Frank Sinatra or Billie Holiday than that of his brother and his timing swings a little more. His vocals - suave, elegant, formidable, and articulate - are among the most respected in jazz. Cole's career continues to ascend as he has moved into the front ranks of America's homegrown art form with a style and musical sophistication all his own. There is a $40 cover plus a $10 food/drink minimum.
NYC: BLUE NOTE JAZZ FESTIVAL PRESENTS: DIZZY GILLESPIE AFRO CUBAN EXPERIENCE
The Dizzy Gillespie Afro Cuban Experience performs atTHE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) on Tuesday & Wednesday, June 3rd & 4th with shows at 8:00 & 10:30 pm. The group features Freddie Hendrix, trumpet & flugelhorn; Sharel Cassity, alto saxophone; Andres Boyarsky, tenor saxophone & clarinet; Abelita Mateus, piano & vocals; John Lee, bass; Tommy Campbell, drums; Roger Squitero, congas & percussion; with Machito, Jr., timbales & percussion. Dizzy Gillespie was introduced to Chano Pozo in 1947 by Mario Bauza. Both became life-long friends and Dizzy and Chano Pozo developed Afro-Cuban jazz, which became extremely successful, attracting people to dance to its unique rhythms. Gillespie's most famous contributions to Afro-Cuban music are the compositions "Manteca" and "Tin Tin Deo". There is a $20-$35 cover.
NYC: ALEXIS CUADRADO GROUP - A LORCA SOUNDSCAPE
The Alexis Cuadrado Group presents A Lorca Soundscape at DIZZY'S CLUB AT JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER (33 West 60th Street, NYC - 212-258-9595) on Tuesday, June 3rd with shows at 7:30 & 9:30 pm. The group features Alexis Cuadrado, bass; Claudia Acuna, vocals; Yosvany Terry, saxophone & chekere; Robert Rodriguez, piano; and Mark Ferber, drums. Barcelona-born Alexis Cuadrado is one of the most sought after musicians in New York. Cuadrado has released five albums as bassist and bandleader, including 2013's A Lorca Soundscape, which was critically acclaimed by DownBeat magazine and The New York Times. As a sideman, Cuadrado is equally distinguished, having performed with top musicians like Kurt Rosenwinkel, Mark Turner, and GRAMMY Award-winner Angelique Kidjo. Cuadrado's output as a composer has peaked in recent years, showcasing a distinctive voice that combines improvisation with through-composed music and draws on jazz, experimental, and flamenco influences.
