Dizzy's Club102 Columbus Circle, New York 10107
Mimi Fox brings her Organ Trio to Dizzy’s Club for an evening with the guitarist’s longtime Bay Area group. The trio pairs Fox with Brian Ho on Hammond B3 organ and Lorca Hart on drums, moving through a repertoire that can run from greasy blues and funk to luscious ballads and blazing bebop. No further program details have been announced for this date.
Born in New York City, Fox has earned recognition in six consecutive DownBeat international critics’ polls and has played or recorded with artists including Joey DeFrancesco, Barbara Dennerlein, Charlie Byrd, Branford Marsalis, Abbey Lincoln, Diana Krall and Terri Lyne Carrington. Her Organ Trio’s One for Wes marked the Wes Montgomery centennial with Montgomery-inspired originals and arrangements. Guitar Player called Fox “a prodigious talent” who has mastered traditional forms while reinvigorating them. Jazz Weekly praised her “inherent sense of swing,” writing that she “plays for feeling instead of mindless chops,” while the New York City Jazz Record described One for Wes as “a heartfelt tribute” showcasing her “exceptional skill and versatility.”
