Last night Berklee’s Ralph Peterson Ensemble was smokin’ at Minglewood for the kick-off to Berklee Jazz & Roots — a major music program the brings Berklee College of Music to Gloucester in 2012 with 9 more concerts all over the City, master classes in the schools and a scholarship fund.  See here for details

We saw one of the best drummers alive today up close and personal in a hip, intimate venue with excellent food and perfect sound.  Ralph brought 3 of his star students and these guys were HOT!

Brad Byrd was there and told us his Wednesday gig at Johnny D’s went so well the owner asked him back for a weekend.  Way to go Brad.

Lots going on tonight.  Allen Estes and Mike O’Connell top the lineup at George’s tonight.  See the full lineup here

  1. This is great to see Gloucester recognized for it’s phenomenal musical talent! Glad to see Brad Bird get a good gig, I’ve seen him out a few times and he always brings it! Good for him!
