In Touch Entertainment is announcing the summer lineup of its highly successful jazz series held in a legendary New York music venue, Zinc.
The programs consist of Piano Jazz, Trumpet Masters, Boss Tenors, Percussion Masters, Dangerous Rhythms (curated by bestselling author and Latin jazz enthusiast T.J. English), and Vocal Mania. The latter is also debuting this month on the West Coast, with performances held at Vitello’s Jazz and Supper Club in Studio City, CA starting on June 29.
In addition to instrument- and voice-centric programs started this spring, In Touch also launched its Strings Attached jazz series last year, featuring four of New York City’s premier six-string jazz masters—Jack Wilkins, Vic Juris, Joe Cohn, and Mark Whitfield—on a single stage.
All these performances will continue to be a regular feature at the Zinc throughout the summer months.
“These programs have met with such enthusiastic response from our audiences because each one features world-class musicians,” said In Touch’s CEO, Charles Carlini. “Given the rich repertoire of our summer series, we are confident they will continue to be very successful,” he added.
Zinc Bar is located at 82 W 3rd St in Greenwich Village.
Vitello’s is at 4349 Tujunga Avenue in Studio City.
