  • The Bernstein/Stewart/ Goldings Organ Trio have been called “one of current jazz’s finest small groups” by JazzTimes magazine and “the longest-lived and most virtuosic organ trio in existence” by SFJazz. Together now for thirty years, they’ve recorded over a dozen albums and performed hundreds of concerts in festivals around the world. Their grooving repertoire celebrates the influence including Larry Young, Jimmy Smith and Jack McDuff. This trio stands out due to their brilliant musicianship, their ability to play difficult music and have it sound easy, and their commitment to groove no matter what tempo or style. The organist and drummer worked with Maceo Parker for a year, they really know how to lay it down and get funky. Come experience a legendary trio that bursts with talent, creativity and beauty. This year each concert will have both a limited in-person audience as well as a livestream component. You may purchase in-person tickets and/or donate to the livestream.  Please give generously and support live music.

Our Secret Shows are meant to build communities, creating an immersive experience that brings guests and artists closer together. What is the venue or location like? This hidden gem in Jersey City originated in 1907. In 2007, the building was converted into an active artist live/work/present space that has since been a home for community members to celebrate artistic expression, diversity, inclusion, and love through music. The venue echoes the mood of the 1970s Jazz Loft scene and provides a platform for cutting edge and culturally significant local, regional, and national musical talent in combination with visual art and multimedia presentations to create an ethereal atmosphere akin to the history that has shaped this one of a kind space.

  • Jazz guitarist David Stern brings a drummerless trio featuring Luis Perdomo on piano and Dominic Duval on bass to the restaurant Pangea in East Village. Two sets starting at 7:30, no cover charge, and great food/drinks. http://www.pangeanyc.com/show/front-lounge-david-stern-trio-730pm-no-cover/ https://davidsternjazz.com/ https://www.instagram.com/davidsternjazz/
  • Hand to Hand is propelled by 2 giant puppet hands, each the size of a house and rigged like a sailing ship, and music that blows the roof off. The Squonkers, dwarfed by the hands, climb a multi-tiered stage. Music rises from a single finger flicking an organ key, as natural an expression of humanity as a wave or a fist. Squonk’s original progressive rock drives a journey that is spectacular, plaintive, and comic. In this melee, the giant thumbs detach to become truly opposable and challenge each other with guitars.
  • Married couple Fatin Dantzler and Aja Graydon are known for music that comes directly from the heart. The duo co-writes relatable and mature R&B songs that are rooted in traditional Soul and Gospel. Kindred The Family Soul were also part of the Neo Soul Philadelphia movement that included Jill Scott.
  • British soulman James Hunter and his gritty, longstanding backing band bring you a sublime evening of no-nonsense Blues. Given their virtuosity, they have shared the stage with acts as diverse as Allen Toussaint, Sharon Jones and Van Morrison.
