The Back Room is one of the most comfortable and intimate rooms to hear music in that we know of. Old timey couches and “bring-your-own” refreshments plus wonderful acoustics and close proximity to the musicians no matter where you’re seated. Yeah: looking forward to playing here once again and intersecting with all of you.

Rova Saxophone Quartet – Think of the human voice in music. The most primal of instruments, it can melt you or move you to tears on the spot. Then it’s the saxophone, one-step removed from the human voice, and the next most powerful messenger in music. Johnny Hodges, Albert Ayler, Steve Lacy, Pharoah Sanders, Oliver Lake, King Curtis, Tim Berne, John Butcher – to name only a few of the many singular voices on the instrument who, with one short phrase or even one sound, can take your breath away, or excite and inspire you to great heights.
