Grover Kemble & Jerry Vezza Quartet

  • Shanghai Jazz 24 Main Street Madison, NJ, 07940 United States (map)

Legendary jazz duo Jerry Vezza (piano) and Grover Kemble (guitar & vocals), along with bassist Hal Slapin and drummer John Vourtsis are back together to enthrall our dinner guests with masterful renditions of jazz standards and the American Songbook. Jerry and Grover have been playing together for over 20 years and the fun they have on a bandstand is definitely infectious. As a leader, Grover draws the audience into every lyric, engaging everyone in the crowd. On piano, Jerry "just swings. He is a very lyrical player. You always have these beautiful melodies in his solos. There’s a real delicacy to his playing. It’s not just arpeggios and flashy technique.” Their bandmates, John and Hal are perfect accompanists on this spectacular night of music!

No music charge, $40 food & drink minimum. Reservations strongly recommended. Seatings at 6:15 and 8:35 for performances at 7:00 and 9:15, respectively.
