About

Dean Mermell, vocals. Tom Griesser, tenor sax. Kymry Esainko, piano. Joe Kyle, Jr., bass. Eric Garland, drums. Mose Def : The Music of Mose Allison Mose Def was born when Flower Piano co-creator Dean Mermell wanted someone to play a Mose Allison tribute at the event, but then decided he wanted to do it himself. Bringing aboard some of the most creative local players, Mose Def celebrates the legacy of a brilliant American songsmith. Dean says, “I think of Mose as the Randy Newman of jazz. Equal parts musical and lyrical brilliance, with a healthy dash of snark. Mose always found just the right tone to deliver his wise blues.” $25 cash cover charge at the door; byob. $10 for students.
