Brownstone Entertainment; Bringing Jazz back ‘Uptown’…..to what was once the ‘spawning ground’ of the ‘Be-bop’ Era, and its’ Traditions…..

The weekend of Friday February 6th and Saturday February 7th will launch the series, celebrating a Brand new ‘Killer’ Record Release, just out on the “Early Bird” label and ‘cut’ in the Traditions of the Original “Jazz Corner” @ 52nd St. & Broadway: MICKEY BASS & The New York Powerhouse Ensemble, “Live’ at The Jazz Corner of the World”

The Band, featured on this record is the same Band which opened the JVC Jazz Festival in 2002, playing at the Schoenberg; received standing ovations at The Clef Club in Philadelphia; and was declared the “Highlight” of The Mellon Jazz Festival.

“Mickey Bass’s long-running ensemble is hard bop with fire and soul; the jumping quintet always lives up to its name.” Gary Giddins.
