Chicago Jazz Guitar Hang & Jam

Chicago Jazz Guitar Hang & Jam is a monthly feature of Chicago's most talented jazz guitarists.

The HANG portion will include the featured jazz guitarist who will play a set of music with our house rhythm section and guitar host Tony do Rosario. We will also have a little Q & A to get to know our featured guests.

Jam:
The JAM portion of the night is the second set where the featured guest will invite some of their students to play alongside them to have a musical dialogue on the stage at the world famous Jazz Showcase.

This months feature: Scott Hesse

Guitarist Scott Hesse has been a fixture in the eclectic Chicago music scene for nearly twenty years. He is equally at home in straight-ahead or avant garde settings. Scott has played at every major jazz venue in the area and been featured at several jazz festivals throughout the United States, Europe, and Canada.

As a leader, Scott has recorded four projects: Intuition (1998), The Flame Within the FIre (2000), Music Speaks (2008), and The Stillness of Motion (2015). Recently, Scott recorded a live performance in Chicago with his current trio (Dana Hall on drums and Clark Sommers on bass) that is due out in the summer of 2023. He is featured on more than fifty recordings as a sideperson earning critical praise.--
