George's Nightclub is proud to introduce Jazz at George's! The series began Thursday January 5, 2012 and will happen every first and third Thursday of every month*! In association with Urban Music Presents, George's will present the best of local, national and international Jazz superstars and we expect the stage to be graced with surprise guest visits from renowned Bay Area Jazz players. George's invites musicians and fans of Jazz to come and participate in what promises to be an incredibly hot Thursday session!

This session will be fronted by the well-rounded, conscious, bassist Troy Lampkins who expands the definition of spiritual music. The son and godson of prominent San Francisco Bay Area Jazz musicians, Troy began playing the Bass at 4 years old.

By the time he turned 9, Troy had already played his first gig. By age 15, he had already shared the stage with Jazz greats Pharaoh Sanders, Eddie Marshall, Ray Obiedo, and his Godfather, the late Ed Kelly.

Influenced by great Bassists like Jaco Pastorius and John Patitucci as well as the Organ phrasings of Hammond B-3 players Shirley Scott and Jimmy Smith, Troy fashioned his signature approach to playing Bass. Playing both the Upright and Electric Bass, Troy is a virtuoso performer on the Electric 6-String Bass.

An accomplished professional and a highly sought-after session player, powerful things are sure to come from this innovative bassist and performer.

Musician Line Up:
Troy Lampkins-6 String Bass
