Advanced Tickets Available at www.ticketsoregon.com Bobby Broom & The Deep Blue Organ Trio are Chicago's version of Mel Brown's B3 Organ Group. Bobby and his band have held down Wednesday nights at Pete Miller's in Chicago for over 13 years. If you love Mel's B3 Organ Group, you'll love this band, too!
Bobby is a tremendously talented guitar player and educator, whose career took off when the great Sonny Rollins asked him to join his group in 1981. Bobby toured and recorded with Rollins for 6 years, rejoined Rollins in 2005, and remains a member of his group. Bobby's other touring credits include work with Hugh Masekela, Kenny Burrell, Stanley Turrentine, Kenny Garrett, and Dr. John.
In addition, Bobby has been recording and releasing his own music, with Bobby Broom Plays for Monk providing fresh insights into Monk's music, while capturing its timeless spirit.
The band's latest release, "Wonderful!", was the most played jazz title in North America last summer, and came in at #1 on both the JazzWeek Top 50 Jazz Album Chart and the CMJ Jazz Top 40 Chart. "Wonderful!" pays tribute to Stevie Wonder with deeply informed, strongly felt versions of nine Wonder songs from the 1970's.
The band is on a West Coast tour headlining some of the area's top jazz rooms including Yoshi's, Jazz Alley, and Jimmy Mak's.
Bobby Broom & The Deep Blue Organ Trio are Bobby Broom (guitar), Chris Foreman (organ), and Greg Rockingham (drums). Don't miss this rare opportunity to enjoy this talented and gifted group.
