Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts (1905 Kentucky Ave. Winter Park FL) consistently brings cutting edge music to Central Florida. Chris Cortez one of the founders often offers solo shows about once a month featuring selections from his many CDs and all time favorites from the Great American Songbook to the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Chuck Berry and more. I love the intimate setting and it is one of my favorite spots to sketch musical acts. Something about the setting gets my creative juices going.
Blue Bamboo is part venue, part recording studio, part art gallery. This unique space offers live performances most evenings, state of the art recording studio, and gallery space. More concert hall than night club, they’re open to all ages and present all kinds of music, theater, dance, and spoken word events. They’re also available for private parties. You can browse the online schedule for tickets or call 407-636-9951 for more information.
They have limited seating so patrons are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance or make reservations. Tickets are also available at the door, based on availability. Most shows begin at 8:00 p.m. and the lobby doors open at 7:00 p.m.. A small bar offers wine, beer and soft drinks.
Thursday Night Hang: Dave Sheffield Trio
Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts, 1905 Kentucky Ave, Winter Park
Free admission!
The trio has been performing together for almost 30 years, and the
group is regarded as one of the finest jazz trios in the central Florida
area. The group features Dave on piano, Jeff Green on bass, and Don
Sanderson on drums. This is an authentic jazz trio with repertoire
consisting of standards from the American song book. The group can
easily crossover from easy listening dinner music, to hard bebop.
