Bickford Theatre Jazz Showcase: Bucky Pizzarelli's 90th Birthday Bash

An annual tradition at the Bickford will take a little detour this January but the spirit will be the same. On October 29th Bucky Pizzarelli suffered a mild stroke which has caused him to suspend his performance activities for the near future. But in the spirit of the legendary guitarist always wanting to please his audience, Bucky has asked his longtime partner, Ed Laub (guitar), to continue bringing the music they have shared for the past 12 years. Ed will be joined by the marvelous virtuoso Frank Vignola (guitar) and Bucky’s son Martin Pizzarelli (bass) for a “Get Well Bucky Concert.” Bucky’s spirit will be in the house, so plan on sharing the positive musical vibes with his spirit this evening.

The performance will be Monday, January 4th at 8:00 pm. Tickets are $15 per person in advance, $18 at the door
