Freddie Bryant's Kaleidoscope West Trio

Freddie Bryant, guitar; Doug Miller, bass; Sylvia Cuenca, drums

We're pleased to welcome NY-based guitarist Freddie Bryant back to Bird & Beckett! Tonight, his Kaleidoscope West Trio presents "Poems, Groove and Song," a special program curated for Bird and Beckett's intimate space. The music is based on a kaleidoscope of influences from straight-ahead to blues, New Orleans grooves to Brazilian, Latin and world rhythms, with songs drawn from his recent album "Solo Bossa" and his acclaimed song cycles, "Upper West Side Love Story" and "Live Grooves...Epic Tales."

Freddie's latest recording project is his most intimate and his first complete album of solo guitar, Solo Bossa, which features 14 of his original compositions written over the last four decades. The title refers to bossa nova and many of the tracks have that classic feel made famous in the early 1960's. The music takes the journey from bossa to samba as well as baiao, bolero, waltz and a sultry ballad-bossa in 7/4.

The Bird & Beckett Cultural Legacy Project, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization presents live music at least 3 times a week at Bird & Beckett Books & Records in San Francisco's Glen Park village: 2 blocks from the Glen Park BART station, Muni lines J, 23, 35, 36, 44, and 52, and on- and off-ramps for I-580.

Seating is limited, so call ahead to reserve: (415) 586-3733. No advance ticket sales. Please bring cash. Venmo ok, if necessary. BYOB.

Can't make the show in person? Stream it live at https://www.youtube.com/@bird_beckett, and throw in some money for the band via venmo: @birdandbeckett
