Destined to be a sell-out, this show welcomes the return of Benny Brydern on violin and Marquis Howell II on bass. These fellas tore up Jazzville last November with the Benny Brydern Hot Club!

Doors open at 6 PM, live show at 7 PM.
Great food and drinks served throughout the show (no minimum).

This show may sell out, so we encourage you to grab your tickets today. Pick your seats when buying tickets. If you ignore the map, then the best available seats will be assigned to you.
