Chris Brown With Mel Brown Quartet, Wednesday, Feb. 18 @ Jimmy Mak’s


Mel’s son, able New Jersey drummer/saxophonist Chris Brown, joins his pops’ quartet at Jimmy Mak’s for some friendly father-son one-upping.

Portland Jazz Orchestra, Thursday, Feb. 19 @ the Old Church

Bobby Hutcherson and Lou Donaldson, Saturday, Feb. 21 @ Crystal Ballroom


Two absolute living legends get together to shake the Crystal Ballroom. Remember, age ain’t nothing but a number.

Kurt Elling, Sunday, Feb. 22 @ Crystal Ballroom


Kurt Elling sings so good that we’re not even going to poke fun at his unnaturally slick hair. The musky-voiced Chicago jazz man sings a lovely set of ballads tonight.
