BrownstoneJAZZ is an authentic jazz vibe. Imagine retreating back to a different time and spend the evening in an intimate setting. Experience the enjoyment of a live Jazz Concert, a Southern Fish Fry Buffet and Open Mic that will delight your palette. Included in the experience is an Upright Grand Piano, once used to create some of today's classic Jazz tunes grouped alongside other acoustic style instruments in what we call THE ROOM.
During the 1930s, perhaps even earlier, one didn't have to go to Manhattan for the Jazz scene, Brooklyn had one of it's own. Bedford Stuyvesant had the largest Jazz community in Brooklyn. The neighborhood held many venues that housed the jazz greats like Thelonius Monk, Lena Horne, Randy Weston, Miles Davis, Max Roach, Hank Mobley and others. All that eventually changed, and jazz clubs fizzled out in favor of a different generation of music.
Debbie McClain, owner of Sankofa Aban Bed and Breakfast is seeking to revive the local jazz scene of the past, along with partner Eric Lemons.
Debbie McClain and Eric Lemons, an accomplished string musician and Co-Foundering partner for BrownstoneJAZZ, value authenticity and selectiveness, when deciding who to feature and when.
No bells, whistles or amps. This is Salon Jazz: intimate, classic, acoustic, plain and simple, every Friday and Saturday night.
You're invited to a magical evening of music as Debbie and Eric take you behind the scene of this undercover jazz venue. You can get there early to meet the performers and others, as you take a seat for a jazz fest experience of a lifetime, these two host will present you with today's best Jazz Artists.
Included in your evening will be a traditional Southern fish fry buffet. Cooked on site in a traditional way.
