Returning to the Jazz Cave at the Nashville Jazz Workshop - The Duffy Jackson Big Band! These shows have been standing room only and this one promises to sell out as well for the band's return on Wednesday, February 22 with a tribute to Woody Herman!

Duffy Jackson is a legend of jazz drumming, and has powered some of the all time great big bands, including those of Count Basie, Artie Shaw, Lionel Hampton, and Illinois Jacquet. The son of legendary bassist Chubby Jackson, he has played with the legends of the music his entire life. There are very few people alive who can swing a band like Duffy can, and we are not only lucky enough to have him in Nashville, but he has put together his own big band of many of Nashville's finest musicians - and they are playing right here at the Jazz Cave. This is going to be a regular event!

Duffy's dad was the pulse behind the famous Woody Herman band of the 40's, and the February 22 concert is Duffy's musical tribute to that great master of the big band idiom. Expect an amazingly swinging performance punctuated with Duffy's comic and priceless insights into the life of the great master.
