Quinn's is proud to present the return of the acclaimed drummer, composer, bandleader and singular musical force, Bobby Previte, leading his group The Visitors as part of a special Sunday showcase on September 9 at 8 PM. The Visitors is Bobby Previte’s touring band that features Previte on drums and compositions, Michael Gamble on guitar, Michael Kammers on tenor saxophone and keyboards, and Kurt Kotheimer on bass. For this appearance at Quinn's, The Visitors will be joined by special guest Fabian Rucker on alto saxophone and synthesizer. The Visitors' first recording, GONE, was recorded live in concert in Warsaw, Poland during their 2016 European tour, and released on the forTune label. In the Fall of 2016 The Visitors hunkered down for two weeks at Previte’s studio in upstate New York, Three Horses in a Wood, fashioning a new sound and direction. A $10 donation for the band will be requested.
