An enthralling fusion of live music from the Josh Rawlings Trio and rhythm tap dance by Jessie Sawyers, aka Visual Musician. From Weezer to jazz standards and everything in between, the concert will feature improvised collaborations as well as choreography performed throughout the evening by Jessie's tap students. Special guests to be announced! 

A Review from Josh Rawlings Trio's newest album, Swell: 
"The star of the album is what the Josh Rawlings Trio does on a Jobim cover with tap dancer, second percussionist Sawyers. [...] He combines methods that are standard (Kessler on drums) and unconventional (Sawyers tap dancing) for a modern, crowd-pleasing effect. Together, the two create a ripping wave for the younger, restless listeners hooked on a beat. It’s one of the best Jobim covers anyone’s done in this century."
