“Blues
In My Shoes!” |
Al
“Coffee” McDaniel
|
McDaniel’s
is a bright new voice to the Blues. His delivery is a special
blend of tones of Barry White, Marvin Gaye and Joe Williams
wrapped skillfully with a cool, modern, urban beat of R&B,
Neo-Soul, and Jazz. Al “Coffee” McDaniel effectively takes
the concepts and grooves out of the funk-dance music of the
80’s and mixes it together with the down-to-earth sounds of
today. His jazzy, bluesy, and original guitar playing style
makes it difficult to limit his music to just one category
or genre. Hear selections from his latest CD “Blues In My
Shoes”, a modern day urban blues opera. |

“City
Lights!” |
The
Robert Harris Group |
Orlando
smooth jazz guitarist Robert Harris visits the Bayview Room
for the very first time in concert, joined by Jimmy Seay on
bass and Steve Takahashi on drums. Whether they’re playing
an upbeat tune with “funky” bass lines or “ringlets” of smooth
jazz beats, you’ll be glad you didn’t miss this concert. |
|
“Music
and Moments!” |
Haferhouse
Jazz Quartet |
Mike
and Lorri Hafer, a husband and wife keyboard and vocalist
duo in their first appearance at the Bayview Room bring a
fine selection of the Great American Songbook. Quite simply,
Mike and Lorri present ‘The Music of Their Lives’…music of
composers such as George Gershwin and Harry Warren to the
swinging songs of the Big Band Era to loving tributes to great
singers like Judy Garland and Billie Holiday. Talented musical
support is provided by son bassist Paul Hafer, and Dave Dunscombe
on drums. |

“Flute
Suite!” |
José
Valentino-Ruiz & Friends |

20-year old phenomenon Latin/Jazz flutist, who doubles on
the saxophone, and plays with passion and heart that is only
matched by his personality. This great concert will include
flaming original tunes and others by Miles Davis, Tina Turner,
Wayne Shorter and many others. Hear selections from his latest
CD “All About You.” |
