Cheryl Hodge Duo at Christo's Pizzeria, Restaurant & Lounge

Last year, Christo's invited the lively and irrepressible Cheryl Hodge and son, Dylan to include Christo's Pizzeria on their west coast tour. Having had a wonderful time, the duo of mother and son is back, and now call themselves: "The Hodge Factor". Cheryl says, "I just can't get enough of this place; or their great piano and audiences!" A longtime Portland favorite, Hodge has often been compared to Nancy King, and Ernestine Anderson. Her music is an infectious blend of jazz, blues and R&B. Often seen performing with guitar great, John Stowell; this night features solely Cheryl at the piano/vocals, along with her favorite bassist, Dylan Hodge; a "monster player" in his own right. In 2013 she won the award for Best Jazz Song (Tree People), at the Hollywood Music In Media Awards. Cheryl has garnered more fans along the way with her 2016 album "Living Off the Grid" (One Woman's Odyssey). One of the songs from that latest album, "Senegal", was nominated for Best Jazz Song 2016 at the HMMAs. Come on down to Christo's Pizzeria for another great Thursday night of jazz, 7-11pm.
