Norm Eder's Driveway Concert Series
— —
"Becker Canyon Ampitheater", 8900 SW Becker Drive, Portland, OR 97223
Music photographer Norm Eder curates this fun driveway concert series every summer. I'll be playing with the amazing Renato Caranto, sax; and a drummer to be named later. No cover charge; generous tipping is encouraged!
Renato and I love playing at this intimate Montavilla Neighborhood wine bar. Nice decor, excellent service, friendly staff, e.z. parking, no cover charge--and of course excellent wine! (The appetizers are tasty too.) What's not to like? (Weather willing, we'll play in the sidewalk performance area.)
Kudos to the owners and managers of The 1905, who have successfully re-opened this wonderful, intimate jazz venue! The Mel Brown B-3 Organ Group's monthly engagement is moving from Last Mondays to Last Sundays, as the venue is no longer open 7 days a week.
Our returning two-show engagement sold out immediately, so fans are advised to purchase their tickets for our upcoming engagements ASAP. There will be two separately ticketed shows each time: at 6 and 8:15 pm.
All tickets are $25

This is a super fun all-ages summertime gig! Vocalist Sean Holmes, drummer Edwin Coleman III and I hold forth a couple times each summer at this outdoor performance space adjoining an excellent Fremont neighborhood Italian restaurant. No cover, plenty of parking. Come check it out if you can!

Sadly, our 20-year run as "Jimmy Mak's signature group" (The Oregonian) came to an end in December 2016 with Jimmy's untimely passing. But our new Thursday night residency at the Jack London Revue is going very well--with three years already under our belt. This is a beautiful, recently-renovated downstairs venue reminiscent of classic jazz clubs of the 50's & 60's. The club features a great sound system, plenty of comfortable seating, intimate lighting, good food, drink & service, and even a dance floor.
