The Incredible Jazz Guitar: A Tribute to Wes Montgomery

WHEN: Sunday, October 14, at 7 PM
WHERE:
Luna Stage, 555 Valley Road, West Orange
TICKETS: $18 in advance, $20 at the door

Wes Montgomery played one of the most unique and exciting sounds in improvisational music. He continues to be the standard for modern jazz guitarists. It’s only natural that acclaimed West Orange-based jazz guitarist Dave Stryker would pay tribute to Montgomery, as he was one of Stryker's early influences. Joining Dave Stryker will be organist Jared Gold and drummer McClenty Hunter.
