Maplewood Avenue

Despite the threat of closure, the Jazz Café at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., continues to attract great musicians to its stage.  Legendary Jazz Guitar Master, Jimmy Bruno has chosen to debut his new CD release Maplewood Avenue at the Jazz Café Friday night, April 27, 2007. Jimmy Bruno’s combo will play music from the new recording as well as other familiar jazz favorites. Jimmy’s music combines his masterful playing with the warmth of the vibraphone and soulful upright bass.

A “live in studio” recording, Maplewood Avenue offers the perfect antidote to over produced jazz. Every song was recorded in complete takes.  No edits.  No processing. Maplewood Avenue includes Tony Miceli on vibraphone and Jeff Pedras on bass.  The CD was produced by Affiliated Artists, LLC.
