Gregg Karukas Unplugged @ The Blue Rose

Join us on Sunday, July 14 @ 6pm for an intimate concert in our home with legendary jazz pianist Gregg Karukas! Register to attend at & simply pay at the door, not on EventBrite.

Gregg has developed an intimate concert experience to complement his international ​touring. We'll be in our home music room up close to the piano and Gregg's famously engaging smile. Gregg will be playing some of his best known songs ​along with Brazilian and jazz classics - "unplugged.” Soulful, funky, and melodic: the ​essential qualities that have defined GRAMMY winning keyboardist/composer/producer ​Gregg Karukas’ 13 solo CDs over a three decade career, both sophisticated and accessible. A ​prolific, genre-crossing veteran of the Contemporary Jazz scene, Gregg was a founding ​member of The Rippingtons and has toured with Larry Carlton, Boney James, Dave Koz, ​Sergio Mendes, Dori Caymmi, Ricardo Silveira, Peter White, Rick Braun, Shelby Flint, ​Melissa Manchester, Alphonse Mouzon, Brenda Russell, and Jeffrey Osborne. Gregg says, ​"These house concerts are sometimes more fun than a big show, since most of the audience ​are friends of friends, relaxed, and I can play longer sets with added songs from my latest ​solo piano CD, ‘Serenata,’ some jazz, and many of my hits, ‘unplugged’. ”

As always at The Blue Rose, snacks and drinks are on the house. It's just a party where we pay the band. Please spread the word with music loving friends! We look forward to meeting you at our place soon!
