John Webber leads a trio for a Happy Hour Jam, with the performance also streamed live.
Webber is an American jazz double-bassist born in St. Louis who relocated to New York City in 1987. His playing has been described as “strong, relaxed and melodic”; he has collaborated with Johnny Griffin, George Coleman, Eric Alexander and Jimmy Cobb, recorded with Horace Silver, and appeared alongside Etta Jones, Lou Donaldson and Ryan Kisor. JazzTimes called his solos “burning.”
Jazzcultural offers a distinctive live music experience in Manhattan, housed in a space that invites close connection between performers and audience. The venue features a modestly sized room where the sound carries clearly, allowing even those at the back to catch the nuances of each set. Seating is available but limited, encouraging an attentive listening environment without the distraction of a bustling bar scene. The venue operates with ticketed shows, often featuring multiple sets that stretch into the late evening, giving you a full night of music. While there is a bar, the focus remains on the performances, making it a place to immerse yourself in the artistry of jazz. The neighborhood adds a quiet charm, making the walk to and from the venue part of the evening’s rhythm.
