On this very special Thursday night, the Mel Brown B-3 Organ Group (dubbed "Jimmy Mak's signature band" by The Oregonian) will have the pleasure of opening for the legendary organist Dr. Lonnie Smith & his trio! For this engagement, Smith returns to Portland with his groundbreaking trio featuring rising guitar star Jonathan Kreisberg and the exciting young gun Colin Stranahan on drums. Don’t miss this exciting evening of grooving, swinging, and beyond! We'll play from 8-9 pm, and Smith will follow at 9:15. FYI, Mel and Lonnie go WAY back; the two, along with guitar legend George Benson, played a steady trio gig in New York back in the day. Don't miss this one! Advanced tickets available here.
