Nationally acclaimed guitarist, HENRY JOHNSON. Henry has worked with great instrumentalists such as Jack McDuff, Hank Crawford, Sonny Stitt, and Ramsey Lewis. And he has worked closely with Nancy Wilson. In fact, if you listen to Organic, you can hear Henry sing (!) with Nancy. Jazz aficionados have at least a few of Henry’s many CD’s in their collections.
Join us for what we know will be another terrific evening in our Sunday JAZZ series. Henry will be joined by GREG SPERO, piano; FRANK RUSSELL, bass; and ROBERT GATES, drums
Support the Hyde Park Jazz Society at the venue that Howard Reich has called "one of the hippest places in Chicago to spend a Sunday night," ROOM 43. In addition to drinks, ROOM 43 also offers "jazz bites." Plan to spend a great Sunday evening with the Hyde Park Jazz Society at ROOM 43, and remember that SOME of you can sleep in on Monday, President’s Day. So come early and stay late!
