  • “The most maturely expressive male jazz singer of his generation, if not the best alive.” – The New York Times on Freddie Cole

    Freddy Cole, younger brother of the legendary Nat “King” Cole, has forged a smoky, distinctive sound of his own. He's joined by "Jazz's working class hero" (All About Jazz), tenor saxophonist Houston Person. A Bay Area favorite with a strong national presence, the “consummate, inventive, endlessly entertaining” (San Francisco Chronicle) jazz chanteuse Eastman leads off the double bill.
