Friends of Middle C Jazz,

We find it hard to believe that it’s been three years already, but we are thrilled to celebrate our third anniversary this weekend at Middle C Jazz. What an amazing couple of years it has been! Reaching another milestone in our club’s history is the direct result of our great team at the Club, the phenomenal music on our stage, and YOU. We would not be here without your support. Many of you have been with us from the beginning, and for that we will always be grateful.

We are excited to commemorate our Third Anniversary this week with a few of our very favorites, Noel Freidline and Maria Howell and special guest Karen Briggs, celebrating iconic artists including Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, Ray Charles and Elton John. Noel and Maria performed at our Grand Opening and our pas two anniversaries, so it is only fitting that they will provide the music to ring in our fourth year. We hope you will join us!

Our thanks again for your support and for your love of music. We look forward to seeing you this weekend, throughout the holidays and in 2023!

With gratitude,
Larry Farber, Founder and Managing Partner
Adam Farber, Founder
Teddy Johnson, Managing Partner

Featured Artist of the Week: The Boneshakers

Now in 2022, as The Boneshakers celebrate the 25th anniversary of their first release, a new energy and excitement has emerged.

Producer John Wooler, who originally signed The Boneshakers in 1997, connected Randy and the incredible Jenny Langer- a powerhouse singer who was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame (NYC and VA) at the age of 28 and won the 2020 Int’l Blues Challenge for Best Self-Produced Album. What started as a few tracks for her project quickly morphed in a new album with The Boneshakers featuring no-holds-barred funk, blues, and rock that marries the sounds and spirits of Detroit Rock City, Memphis, and Mussel Shoals.

Produced by Wooler, it is back to the original vision of The Boneshakers fiery sound, with the vocal dynamo Jenny Langer behind the mic and original musicians from “The Book Of Spells” Sergio Gonzales (Drums), Nathan Brown (Bass), Jon Gilutin (Keys), The Texacali Horns (Joe Sublett, Mark Pender, and Randy’s former band mate from Was (Not Was) Sir Harry Bowens on vocals.

The new album One Foot In the Groove was released on Take It To The Bridge Records on Sept 30th. According to Blues Matters Magazine, “This is an album that every blues, funk, and soul music lover needs in their collection.”
