First Fridays at the View-Live Jazz & Dancing

First Fridays at the View is where grown folks come to listen to live jazz, dance and have a good time. Our featured artist for January is "The Jamael Dean Quartet". Pianist and producer Jamael Dean is a jazz prodigy who has collaborated and performed with the likes of Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and Carlos Niño. Jamael's music reflects the dual influence of his Los Angeles contemporaries and jazz ancestors, including Sun Ra, Alice Coltrane, Herbie Hancock and soul jazz drummer Donald Dean — who is also his grandfather. L.A., he says, is “the only place I can go in the same day to a jam session with music from the 20s and 30s to another session with music in the 40s through the 80s, and after that play music with my friends from that era onwards."

DJ Sidney Thompson will spin the dance music.

The View Music Bar offers state of the art sound & lighting with pristine acoustics, great ambience, drinks and food. We also have an outdoor area for cigar aficionados.
