Ben Hedquist ft. Lewis Nash, Mike Kocour & More!

Enjoy an evening of rich, swinging jazz with bassist and composer Ben Hedquist, one of the Valley’s most sought-after performers. He’s joined by an all-star quintet—Eric Rasmussen (reeds), Clark Gibson (reeds), Mike Kocour (piano), Max Beckman (bass), and jazz legend Lewis Nash (drums)—to celebrate the legacy of Oscar Pettiford, the groundbreaking bassist, cellist, and composer who helped define bebop and modern jazz. From hard-swinging lines to lyrical ballads, this tribute captures the depth and brilliance of Pettiford’s music—an unmissable evening for jazz lovers and newcomers alike.
