Broadway Grill continues to be a beacon of live jazz in B'game. The Monday night jam at Max's Opera on the Bayfront hosted by KCSM DJ Chris Cortes is good too, but the Grill has much better food and ambiance. Wednesday night saw recent Grammy winner Jamie Davis bring a swinging quartet to the restaurant. That swelled to a sextet after another tenor sax player and trumpeter sat in for the second set and other notable guests took a turns at bass and guitar.
Davis is the vocalist for the Count Basie Orchestra which just won a Best Large Jazz Ensemble Grammy last month for their latest album. Great stuff and you can't complain about the (non-existent) cover charge. Check out the Grill's music calendar here. Music is generally happening three nights a week or more.
