Andre Hayward – Trombone Mike Fageros – Guitar Jakob Hartz – Piano Aaron Allen – Bass Kevin Witt – Drums Andre Hayward is a trombone player based in Austin, Texas. His sound and clarity are reminiscent of the late J.J. Johnson. Born in Houston in 1973, Hayward’s first exposure to music was through his parents, Melvin and Barbara Hayward. He began playing trombone and tuba at the age of 11. He attended HSPVA, and continued to hone his skills with Houston’s legendary educator Conrad O. Johnson. He has recorded or performed with Betty Carter, Roy Hargrove, Joe Williams, John Lewis, Kirk Whalum, The Duke Ellington Orchestra and many others. Hayward toured as lead trombonist with The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. Please Note: This is a live-taping, so we'll be enforcing a whisper-policy!

First Show: Doors at 7:15pm, Show at 7:30pm. Second Show: Doors at 9:15pm, Show at 9:30pm.

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for the Justin Vasquez Quartet! Justin Vasquez – Saxophone Andy Langham – Piano Aaron Allen – Bass Gerry Gibbs – Drums Evolution and a fiercely open-minded approach to composition are the hallmarks of saxophonist Justin Vasquez. His writing, filled with surprises and twists, crosses boundaries of jazz, contemporary, country, classical, and singer/songwriter aesthetics. His sound, aggressive and muscular, bears the lineage of greats like Coltrane, Joe Henderson, Kenny Garrett and Michael Brecker yet is immediately identifiable. Justin Vasquez has recorded, performed or toured with a diverse range of artists such as Christopher Cross, Randy Brecker, Jimmy Haslip (Yellowjackets), Mike Stern (Miles Davis), Mark Guiliana, Manhattan Transfer, Dave Liebman (Miles Davis), Tom Harrell, Gretchen Parlato, Janek Gwizdala and Jojo Mayer. Justin endorses D’Addario reeds products. Please Note: This is a live-taping, so we'll be enforcing a whisper-policy!
