 It's
been almost 3 years since the Ed Jackson Quartet has been performing to growing number of warm receptive
audiences at Jackson Room. Ed Jackson and his cadre of musicians and jazz masters have been "bringing world class jazz back to our community" every month going on 3 years.
Ed Jackson, and his name sake quartet have been doing jazz performances the last Saturday, every month called "Month's End Jazz Motivations." Jackson is tapping into the tremendous tradition of Jazz innovators in St. Albans and Southeast Queens. Some of the top jazz artists have lived in Southeast Queens at one time or another.
Jazz luminaries like John Coltrane, Fats Waller, Lena Horn, Ella Fitzgerald, Mercer Ellington, Billie Holiday, and many others have lived in the area. Ed Jackson is also happy for the support the community have given him in the past and present.
"I sincerely thank supportive people like you
for making this anniversary possible. Without you achieving a milestone like 3 years of performances at Jackson Room wouldn't be possible" says Jackson.
On that note the Summer
heat is also slowly but surely beginning to warm things up. Although
the cooler temperatures seem to want to linger with us the warming trend
cannot be denied much longer. What better time to come out and support jazz and positive culture in our community.
Consistent with the unstoppable seasonal heating trends the Ed Jackson Quartet,
and events at Jackson Room, have been rising in warmth and intensity.
The summer is a great time to experience the invigorating soulful spark
of jazz. Why not come out this month and bask in the uplifting glow of
our community enlivened with irresistible music and support Jackson Room?
