Jazz90.1 and Greece Community Broadcasting Inc. are pleased to announce that jazz saxophonist Lou Donaldson and his quartet will headline the 2014 Meet the Artist Concert Series with a live performance on Thursday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m. at the Radisson Hotel Rochester Riverside in downtown Rochester.

There is a two beverage minimum purchase for all attendees at the venue. Lou Donaldson has long been an excellent bop altoist influenced by Charlie Parker, but with a more blues-based style of his own. His distinctive tone has been heard in a variety of small-group settings, and he has recorded dozens of worthy and spirited sets throughout the years. After a few years off records, Lou Donaldson’s artistic return in 1981 and subsequent soul-jazz and hard bop dates for Muse, Timeless, and Milestone have found the altoist back in prime form.
