$15 cover. Doors at 2:30pm.Vancouver saxophone phenom Cory Weeds teams up with powerhouse organist Chris Hazelton to deliver a hard-swinging night of music in the classic organ quartet format.
Joined by the soulful guitar stylings of David Rourke and the impeccable groove of drummer Rudy Petschauer, this group brings a perfect blend of grit, swing, and soul to the stage. The chemistry between Weeds’ robust, lyrical tenor sound and Hazelton’s deep-pocket Hammond organ playing makes for an irresistible combination that channels the golden era of jazz organ groups.
Audiences can expect a dynamic program filled with blues-drenched originals, cleverly arranged standards, and a surprising twist: reimagined versions of songs from Huey Lewis and the News’ iconic Sports album from 1983. Whether diving into a greasy shuffle, stretching out on a ballad, or giving new life to a pop classic, this quartet’s energy and musicality promise a performance that is both steeped in tradition and refreshingly inventive.
