Join us for an exciting concert at the Lighthouse Bistro and Pub. This is the 15th in a monthly series that was partially inspired by Brad Turner playing with us at the Lighthouse last September. The energy that Brad brought to the room and the success of the show gave us much needed momentum to start this series, and we are always honored to have him back. This time around we will play songs from the repoirtoire of the great Freddie Hubbard!
