6.15 pm JiGjAs
a soul jazz quartet of Brunswick locals built around the iconic, warm, sometimes gritty sound of the Hammond organ. Along with Adrian Whitehead on Hammond Organ, the band features Gideon Brazil - Saxophone, Jim Green - Guitar, and Sonja Horbelt - Drums. Together they are inspired by the classic 60s soul jazz era and they blend bluesy roots with deep grooves to make rich textures, irresistible rhythms, and present a fresh take on vintage sounds.
