Johnson, Woody Herman, and Wes Mongomery, and also contributed to the lexicon of jazz standards with his tune "Work Song". Experience the Adderley legacy in full swing with Nat Adderley Jr., an accomplished pianist and musical director best known for his work with Luther Vandross. Nat wrote and arranged Luther's first Top 20 pop hit, 'Stop to Love,' as well as other iconic songs, including 'Wait for Love' and the Grammy-nominated 'Give Me the Reason.' He also arranged many of Luther's most popular records, such as 'Superstar,' 'Here and Now,' 'If Only for One Night,' 'Creepin',' 'If This World Were Mine,' 'So Amazing,' 'There's Nothing Better Than Love,' 'Never Too Much,' and 'Love Won't Let Me Wait.' Vocalist Akina Adderley, who proudly calls Austin home, has performed all over the city, from massive venues like ACL Live and Stubb's to intimate spots like the Cactus Cafe, as well as at venues across Texas, Los Angeles, New York, and the South. She has performed and recorded with Austin favorites Shinyribs and Jackie Venson and produced two albums and three singles under her own name. She can be seen performing with her band as well as with the popular jazz group Nori. Together, Nat and Akina will bring Nat Adderley's iconic sound to life, blending generations of jazz genius in a night of timeless music and family magic.

Pulkingham Layne is the nylon string acoustic instrumental guitar project of Darin Layne and David Pulkingham. Both artists are top-notch performers, whose careers have placed them on stages around the world with luminaries ranging from Moby to Bruce Springsteen. Their second album, “Stringology” (August 2017), is in turns giddy, with playfulness and heartbreaking in sweet sadness. The 11 tracks on “Stringology” traverse styles from Brazilian Choro to Jazz to Classical, with nods to Flamenco and Klezmer music. Pulkingham Layne is a heartfelt expression of joy in music and camaraderie from two world-class players who have every intention of moving the listener.” – KutX 98.9 Parker Jazz Club is 21+ music venue

Singer and actor Frank Sinatra rose to fame singing big band numbers. In the 1940s and 1950s, he had a dazzling array of hit songs and albums and went on to appear in dozens of films, winning a supporting actor Oscar for his role in From Here to Eternity. He left behind a massive catalog of work that includes iconic tunes like "Love and Marriage," "Strangers in the Night," "My Way" and "New York, New York." On December 12, we celebrate the birth of Ol’ Blue Eyes with a full orchestra led by acclaimed big band vocalist Bryan Anthony. Anthony keeps the legacy of the Great Gentlemen of Song, especially Sinatra, alive and well in his immensely satisfying and sweetly nostalgic performances. A veteran vocalist of ensembles like the Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and Nelson Riddle Orchestras, Anthony provides stunning homages to the Swing Era for contemporary audiences.
