Dann Zinn
has mentored many of the most formidable horn players to grow up in the Bay Area, including Grammy Award-winner Pascal Le Boeuf. But he’s always maintained an impressive practice as a recording artist and bandleader, and the quartet he brings to this treasured venue is stellar by any measure. Frank Martin is a pianist for all seasons and settings. Daniel “D-Lucca” Parenti is veteran bassist with a relentless pulse, and drummer Deszon Claiborne is the first-call cat for improvisers looking to add some felonious funk to their swing. A smart, soulful musical seeker, Zinn has honed a deep book of original tunes that bear repeated listening. -Andrew Gilbert; East Bay Express
