SAN FRANCISCO: JOEY DeFRANCESCO TRIO AT YOSHI'S
Critically acclaimed Jazz organist Joey DeFrancesco Will perform at YOSHI'S(1330 Fillmore Street, San Francisco, CA - 415-655-5600) on Wednesday & Thursday, June 5th & 6th at 8:00 pm. DeFrancisco comes from a musical family. His Grandfather Joseph DeFrancesco (his name sake) was a reed man. And of course his father "Papa" John DeFrancesco is a fine jazz organist in his own right. At the age of 4 Joey began taking a strong interest in the organ. By the time he was five, he was playing Jimmy Smith songs verbatim. As the years went on his interest and love for the organ and music grew stronger. From the ages of 5-10 his father would bring him to his own gigs and let him sit in. At 10 years of age he began to play in a Band in Philadelphia, which featured legendary players Hank Mobley on Tenor Saxophone, and "Philly" Joe Jones on the Drums. There is a $25 cover.
