The Baxter County Library will be hosting its second concert in a series of Indoor Summer Concerts Saturday evening at 7:00 with New York Jazz trio The Daniel Bennett Group.
Daniel Bennett has been hailed as one of his generation’s most original and unpredictable musical voices. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette describes Bennett’s music as a mix of “modern jazz and Avant-pop.” Bennett has been featured in Timeout New York, NPR and The Boston Globe. The UK Jazz Journal called Bennett, “an outspoken voice of hope,” during the COVID-19 pandemic. Daniel Bennett Group was recently voted Best New Jazz in Hot House Magazine. The trio is currently promoting their 9th studio album, ‘New York Nerve.’ Daniel Bennett Group performs regularly at the Blue Note (NYC), Ronnie Scott’s (London), Tomi Jazz (NYC), and Herb Alpert’s Vibrato Club (LA).
Bennett is a touring clinician and associate director of the New York Jazz Academy in Times Square. Daniel Bennett orchestrated the music for ‘Whitman at the Whitney,’ a stage adaptation of the poetry of Walt Whitman. The production debuted at the Whitney Museum in New York City. Daniel Bennett’s theatrical works have strongly influenced his eclectic sound and musical storytelling abilities as a bandleader.
The Bookworms Café, located at the Library, will be open from 6 to 8 on concert nights for all your refreshment needs.
The Daniel Bennett Group is the second of three in the Library’s Indoor Summer Concert Series.
In August, you can enjoy the local, pop-folk sounds of Amber Sutton and Chris Cash.
