“A dream team of forward-looking hard bop,” (The New York Times) the Cookers are bringing an evening of pyrotechnic playing to 54 Below. This all-star septet of jazz veterans has a combined experience of over 250 years in the jazz world and has been a part of over 1,000 recordings. Since this version of the band was solidified in 2007, the group has performed at venues around the world, bringing their searing brand of 60’s be-bop to all corners of the globe. Don’t miss this one-night-only performance that promises to blow the roof off!
“Player for player, there’s no better working band in jazz than the Cookers.” –The Boston Globe
