With New York pianist Jason Lindner as guest, the Coast goes NOW. “Among the finest all-around pianist-composers of his generation” (Time Out New York), Lindner has collaborated with a host of folks, including legends Chick Corea and Wynton Marsalis and young talents Anat Cohen, Dafnis Prieto and Baba Israel. He puts out sounds from “elegant balladry to body-rocking grooves” (JazzTimes), whether he's playing keyboards with his jazz-funk group NOW vs NOW or with his own JL Big Band. As Lindner says, “Be part of the musical current, the present movement, the present moment,” and catch this show.
