Collaborations are nothing new in the history of jazz. Ellington and Strayhorn, Bill Evans and Jim Hall, Stanley Turrentine and Kenny Burrell are examples of artists who pooled their talent and ideas to create memorable and moving music. The Gerry Beaudoin Trio with Harry Allen is another memorable musical experience in this jazz tradition. Meeting at a concert together in 2009 they found an instant musical camaraderie and respect for each other’s music. That turned into a recording session months later. The Gerry Beaudoin Trio: The Return with Harry Allen was the result of a that chance meeting in 2009. Gerry comments, “Harry is the perfect foil for me and my music.” Songs from the Return were placed on the Grammy Awards ballot in three different categories. 

Award winning jazz guitarist Gerry Beaudoin has carved out a career as a guitarist, arranger, composer, educator and recording artist. He was the founder of the critically acclaimed Boston Jazz Ensemble and The New Guitar Summit which featured Gerry, Jay,Geils of J.Geils Band fame and blues icon Duke Robillard.

Tenor saxophonist Harry Allen is of the bright stars in jazz. Harry has performed at jazz festivals and clubs worldwide, frequently touring the United States, Europe and Asia. He has performed or recorded with Rosemary Clooney, Ray Brown, Hank Jones, Frank Wess, Flip Phillips, Scott Hamilton, Harry 'Sweets' Edison, Kenny Burrell, Herb Ellis, John Pizzarelli, Bucky Pizzarelli, Jeff Hamilton, Warren Vache, and has recorded with Tony Bennett, Johnny Mandel, Ray Brown, Tommy Flanagan, JamesTaylor and Cheryl Crow.  The Harry Allen - Joe Cohn Quartet won the New York Nightlife Award for Outstanding Jazz Combo Performance of 2006 and was nominated for Best Jazz Combo by the Jazz Journalists Association for the same year. 

The current Gerry Beaudoin Trio features two long time players in Gerry's musical orbit, Acoustic bassist Brad Hallen and young vibraphone phemomona Gerard V. Beaudoin III.

Jeremy Wallace is a blues/rock singer/songwriter from New Jersey. He has performed at various venues on the East Coast, and has opened for artists such as Dave Van Ronk, John Hammond, and Freedy Johnston. Wallace took guitar lessons from Van Ronk, who sang a duet with Wallace on the song "Samson and Delilah" on Wallace's second album, She Used to Call Me Honey.

Jeremy has a gritty, graveled voice that sounds as though he’s been gargling with gasoline. A bushel-full of song upon song about love-gone-oh-so-wrong, the romance of hanging out in deadbeat bars, the salvation of whiskey and making lots of bad choices. A minimalistic blues-based sound soaked in days long gone by – all drums with brushes and stand-up bass.

Not only a blues shouter in the tradition of Big Joe Turner and Wynonie Harris, this Boston native carries on the sweet gospel soul of Sam Cooke, the yearning of Hank Williams Sr., and cartoonish fun of Louis Jordan.

Lisa Marie tells her audience that "joy and sorrow are two sides of the same coin"... This woman is a storyteller, with a gift that allows you to fall deeply in love with a song - sometimes one you may have heard before.

If you’re looking for down home, old school, no-nonsense, house-rocking, kickass electric blues, you’ve come to the right place! The Juke Joint 5 focuses on the sounds you might have heard emerging in the early 1950s from some distant, static-crackling, late night radio station: jumped-up urban rhythm and blues; the raw Delta country sound just recently getting electrified in Chicago; Memphis rockabilly; and the primitive beginnings of rock and roll. John Bunszell (bass); Dick Lourie (saxophone); Gretchen Bostrom (vocals); Silvertone Steve (guitar); Noah Teshu (drums). The band’s high-energy vocals are provided by Gretchen Bostrom, performing the JJ5′s wide range of songs by Ruth Brown, Louis Jordan, LaVern Baker, Don Covay, Big Mama Thornton, Little Richard, Slim Harpo, and other such classic blues/r&b performers. Joining Gretchen in the front line are two old pro blues players: Silvertone Steve is a slide guitar master and veteran of J.B. Hutto’s band; gritty saxman Dick “the Poet” Lourie performed frequently with the late Big Jack Johnson. John Bunszell on bass and drummer Noah Teshu make up the band’s solid rhythm section.

In 1986, after his traumatic battle experiences in Lebanon, Sharoni moved to Boston, where he enrolled at the Berklee College of Music. He left after a single semester, opting instead for private lessons with saxophonists Jerry Bergonzi and George Garzone. In the meantime he began leading his own bands and has since appeared with Joshua Redman, Danilo Perez, Kenny Garrett and Larry Coryell. Today, having survived the trials and tribulations of war, Sharoni and his music stand as living testaments to the power of jazz to restore mind, body and spirit.

Sharoni says. “Every musician has a gift, and I think mine is to make music simple enough, but emotional enough, so everyone can feel good about it. I didn’t think about having something for everyone on the disc, although I think everyone can find something they like on it.”

Benny on Sax, John Lockwood on bass, Steve Langone on drums.

This will be an exciting evening of great Jazz!
