Mike LeDonne is a double threat, equally proficient on piano and Hammond B3 Organ. As a pianist he has had a long stints with the likes of Benny Goodman, Milt Jackson and Benny Golson. As an organist he has concentrated primarily on his quartet, which has held down the Tuesday night spot at New York's Smoke Jazz Club for more than 15 years. The Groover, as he calls himself, has released six records with his quartet, including his most recent AwwlRIGHT! to critical acclaim.
This concert reunites LeDonne with Vancouver's Cory Weeds (also Saxophone). Their second collaboration resulted of UP A STEP: The music of Han Mobley and garnered the group a Juno nomination. Their last recording, Condition Blue: The Music of Jackie McLean, spent 18 weeks on the Jazz Week Charts, making it as high as #3. Joining the band will be Steve Kaldestad-tenor saxophone, Dave Sikla-guitar and Joe Farnsworth-drums.
