SANTA FE JAZZ UPDATE
Hello everyone and Happy Holidays. How did that happen ? ? ?
I’m sure it’s no secret to everyone that El Meson, the only other viable jazz venue, has closed it's doors for good. That is not a good sign for the restaurant business in Santa Fe, nor for the jazz scene. We are of the belief that the more presence that jazz has the better it is for everyone. With that in mind let me say that I have been looking for a small venue to continue what we did for seven years at The Museum Hill Cafe, and I have found it. The venue is called “Club Legato”, which was a well established venue, only with a new name, formally La Casa Sena; a long time venue for music with an excellent piano, excellent sight lines, great acoustics and the best Santa Fe has to offer in fine dining. The management has decided to have jazz and our own Bob Fox has been playing solo piano there for a few weeks. Word is slowly starting to get out and now the management has decided to up the ante and try a jam session format every Friday and Saturday from 6pm - 9pm. The Bob Fox Trio will be the house rhythm section with Bob on piano, Al Erich on bass and yours truly on drums. Musicians will be sitting in on all instruments throughout the evening. The new format was launched this past weekend and it proved to be quite an interesting and diverse musical menu. If we can keep it going through the new year I think we can not only replace the void that the El Meson closing created, but launch a new Santa Fe Jazz scene and warm up the seats for the schedule of concerts that SFMC has in store at Club Legato for 2022. In the meantime, stay tuned for SFMC’s Concert announcements and come on out and support live jazz every Friday and Saturday.
