The Jazz Thieves steal Duke Ellington’s melodicism, Tom Waits’s grit, Bill Withers’s soulful lyricism, and Kamasi Washington’s modern edge, uniting all it with a jazz imagination. They released their first full-length album, “Brooklyn Elegy,” in late 2016. They are led by the bassist/composer/lyricist John Gray and feature Matt Robbins on vocals and keyboard, Ayumi Ishito on saxophone, and Tim Ford on drums.

About Erv’s
Erv’s was a Critic’s Pick in New York Magazine. And DNA said: “The best hidden gem this side of Prospect Park…” Erv’s has a full bar PLUS enjoy the delicious Brrrito Dave’s vegan, vegetarian and meat burritos.
PLG Arts presents music at Erv’s the third Wednesday of every month—BUT JUST FOR NOVEMBER, WE’RE PRESENTING THE MUSIC ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14 (so as not to interfere with Thanksgiving).
Admission is free! (Donations are much appreciated.)
