Join us for FREE JAZZ SUNDAY in the Sunset Lounge on Sunday, October 12th featuring Tom Varner with the L Dowdell Trio.
Internationally acclaimed French horn innovator Tom Varner and pianist Linda Dowdell—childhood friends from Millburn, New Jersey—present an afternoon of inventive jazz and fresh interpretations. With Rachael Contorer on bass and Melanie Sehman on drums, the quartet reimagines classics from Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, and other American Songbook favorites.
“What fun to reinterpret these familiar songs, like Star Dust and Night and Day, with a new instrument and an old friend.”
