This week, as part of the continuing “Tuesday Jazz Trio Series,” Bassist Hal Slapin and Drummer John Vourtsis are thrilled to welcome George Naha back to the Shanghai Jazz stage. George  has gigged with Aretha Franklin, Donald Fagen, Steve Cropper, Duck Dunn, Steve Forbert, Roy Orbison, Melissa Manchester, Willie Dixon, Wilson Pickett, Junior Walker, Sam & Dave and countless others. He has recorded with Bill Doggett, Allen Toussaint, Livingston Taylor, Bernard Purdie, Jack DeJohnette, Gerald Albright and Cornell Dupree.  George has done Jingles, TV and Movie work, played on Broadway, produced records, arranged for live dates and recordings, and worked as Musical Director for many artists. This promises to be a special night of music with George, Hal and John.

And come early to hear Rich Court playing solo piano. Standards, Beatles & beyond. He starts at 5:30.

Tonight’s Trio begins at 6:30 and performs two sets. Reservations are always recommended.
