About this Event
Some musicians’ careers are easily pigeonholed. Not so Bob Sheppard’s. For more than four decades, the multi-instrumentalist has played on countless sessions with an astounding crop of A-list jazz giants—among them Chick Corea, Freddie Hubbard, Michael and Randy Brecker, Mike Stern, Herbie Hancock, Kurt Elling, Dianne Reeves, Lyle Mays, John Beasley and Steps Ahead—and artists within several other genres. He’s also recorded and toured as a leader, contributed to hundreds of movie and TV soundtracks, served as an educator and more.
Known as a creative playground for visual arts, comedy, literature, and classical music, The Earl is thrilled to launch "Jazz At The Earl," a new jazz series in partnership with saxophonist and composer Jeff Walton.
Fresh off the success of their album release show at The Earl, the Jeff Walton Quartet will be in residency each month - joined by a guest artist who brings their unique voice and compositions to the bandstand. Past guest artists include Nicole McCabe, Jon Hatamiya, Julien Knowles, and Devin Daniels.
Come to enjoy the music, sip on a drink, and support a new scene in LA! You might enjoy it as much as Teresa:
"It was so much fun to hear Jeff and his band play! The way they reinterpreted the songs on the record to fit the live atmosphere made it feel like a wholly unique experience for the audience. Excited to check out a future performance!"
-Teresa Tuan, TV writer and physician
