Jazz Jam Fest featuring Cleve Eaton, Carver Theatre

Jazz JamFest features special jazz performers each fourth Sunday of the month at the historic Carver Theatre. The stage becomes yours as you lead your own jam session with the band.

This month’s special guest is Cleve Eaton, a recognized name in the jazz world, as a producer, composer and arranger. Eaton is known for his incredible performances with the Ike Cole Trio, Donald Byrd-Pepper Adams Quintet, the Larry Novak Trio, and over thirty recordings in his ten years with the Ramsey Lewis Trio, which included four gold singles, including Hang on Sloopy and Wade in the Water. Eaton’s numerous honors include his induction into the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame (this February), the Playboy Jazz Poll, Canada’s Cultural Enhancement Award and the Achievement Award at the Count Basie Tribute Concert. He received the Governor’s Arts Award 1995 (Alabama) and the Don Redman Lifetime Achievement Award in 2004.
