Dr. Lonnie Smith (Organ) Trio at Columbia University’s Miller Theatre (Site)
Saturday October 7, 2017, 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$20 – $35Dr. Lonnie Smith, the elder statesman of the Hammond B3 organ with a career spanning over five decades, is nothing short of a living legend. He cut his teeth in the 1960s alongside the likes of George Benson and Lee Morgan, and has become known as one the most important innovators of his instrument. Recently named an NEA Jazz Master, this septuagenarian is just getting warmed up–his freewheeling trio is a relentless tour de force of energy and groove.
