Herb Scott and Hope Udobi Duo

Awakening Bar & Grill / Capitol Hill / Map

Herb Scott is something of a symbol of the modern jazz cat: he can blow his alto sax with the best of them, burning down the house with Charlie Parker-style, rapidfire phrasing, or he can pick up the mic to drop a few bars as a rapper. Pianist Hope Udobi isn’t just one of the D.C. scene’s most promising young jazz players from a musicianship standpoint; he’s one of the most riveting, creatively speaking. Udobi’s incendiary bop style is brimming with furious energy, mad montunos and unpredictable lines that venture “out” and dig into the blues’ depths with equal aplomb. The pair hold down a new weekly gig at Awakening in Barracks Row. Vocalists are welcome to join.
