Our guests today include three longtime jazz musicians who have graced many venues in Los Angeles and across the country with their respective talents; producer and host of A Red Cantaloupe Experience Robert J. Carmack, jazz pianist and musical director Knick Smith and vocalist Jeff Robinson. These artists have joined us today to discuss A Red Cantaloupe Experience. The high energy live jazz concert featuring the Knick Smith Quartet, made its debut this summer, served up hot at Roscoe’s Jazz Lounge In Long Beach.
A Red Cantaloupe Experience will return to Roscoe’s on Sunday, Nov. 24 to present “The Music — The Magic” in celebration of two great musical legends, George Duke and Al Jarreau. The great news is the Knick Smith Quartet is on the bill again for November. The LA based band features Rickey Woodard- sax/flute, Edwin Livingston - acoustic and electric bass, Marvin “Smitty” Smith - drums, Knick Smith - keys, piano and Fender.
In addition, Jeff Robinson will be on vocals and, “surprise” guest, Munyungo Jackson on percussion. The live show will also be streamed on View Stub. The event even includes a bonus attraction with magician/illusionist David Golidy Jr.
Listen in to this discussion about what holds this great music together in order to bring you the magic.
