Event information

Pianist Kirk Lightsey defines himself as ‘Detroit mainstream with a Bud Powell awareness, an Art Tatum styling (and) a bebop feel.’ Following many productive associations in the 60s his status as an international jazz pianist was secured in 1979 when he joined Dexter Gordon’s group. Steve Watts (d/bass) and Dave Wickins (drums/perc.). ‘Manages to combine the bluesy exuberance of a barrelhouse pianist with the elegance of a Chopin recitalist.’ The Guardian.
