Burn List featuring: Chris Icasiano, Aaron Otheim, Greg Sinibaldi and Cuong Vu

Had some time tonight to catch 3 of the twenty or so shows on the Ballard Jazz Walk, on the 3rd day of the annual Ballard Jazz Festival. Burn List put on a great set upstairs at the Salmon Bay Eagles.

Playing downstairs at the Salmon Bay Eagles was Go By Train featuring: Clay Giberson, Dan Balmer, Charlie Doggett. Another cool set with a band I have not heard before.

That is one of the great things about the Ballard Jazz Walk. You get the opportunity to stroll around and hear more bands in an evening than you would any other way.

I finished up early Friday night because I have an early starting gig on Saturday but made sure to close with the amazing Suffering F**kheads featuring Ron Weinstein on the Hammond B3 Organ with Mike Peterson playing drums at The Copper Gate.

Be sure and try and make some of the performances on Saturday, the final day of the Festival. Here is a schedule for the remaining events.

The sewcond evening of the Bellevue Jazz Festival continued with quite a number of different performances in varied venues around town. Above is the Josh Rawlings trio playing inside the new Neiman Marcus. I love the setting. The music sounded great there too,

Over at Grand Cru Wine Bar at TEN20 the Bill Anschell Duo with Jeff Johnson on bass played a great set.

It was such a busy week that I have not had time to post these photos of the Joe Locke performance. What a concert. Sorry for the delay. Joe presented a stellar quintet featuring pianist Darrell Grant,trumpeter Thomas Marriott, bassist Jeff Johnson, and drummer John Bishop.

One last shot of Corey on guitar
Soul- jazz guitarist Corey Christiansen opened with a quartet featuring organist Joe Doria, saxophonist Mark Taylor, and drummer Matt Jorgensen. What a great Festival. Matt Jorgensen and John Bishop worked their tails off to present another really enjoyable experience of jazz in the heart of Ballard the heart of Seattle. I can not wait to see what they come up with next year.
