Tenor saxophonist Javon Jackson’s main interest is fusing funk with jazz and with his regular band— plus legendary pianist-vocalist Les McCann— performed last week at Jazz Alley in Washington, D.C., reflected that interest. In fact, Jackson said listeners will hear very little funk when he and his Super Band are in concert Thursday, Oct. 12, at the Outpost Performance Space.
That band includes pianist George Cables, drummer Jimmy Cobb and bassist Nat Reeves.
“We’ll be playing more bop and hard bop material because most of the venues with them are concert venues,” Jackson said in a phone interview from Washington, D.C.

Jackson is a product of the world of bop, having been a member of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers ensemble. Since his years with Blakey, Jackson has worked with other jazz legends, including Elvin Jones, Cedar Walton, Charlie Haden and Christian McBride. Read more!

John C. Reilly is a pretty natural choice for a Ferrell second banana, and as all the press keeps pointing out, he may be the only actor to appear in two NASCAR movies (he was in Days of Thunder).
