If you would like to be put on the waitlist\, please call the Annex at 310-833-4813\, placement on the waitlist does not guarantee a ticket. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n John Jorgenson is a multi-instrumentalist and master guitarist who is recognized across rock\, jazz and Americana genres. As the leader of the John Jorgenson Quintet (JJQ) his musicality and virtuosity absolutely shine. The group’s style is inspired by the dynamic string-driven swing created by Django Reinhardt in Paris in the 1930s\, yet Jorgenson’s compositions draw additionally from Latin\, Romanian\, Greek\, classical\, and rock music. \nJJQ is the only American act to ever headline the prestigious Festival Django Reinhardt in France and has been featured at Django-celebrating festivals around the world. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n In addition to his jazz laurels\, Jorgenson toured for six years with Elton John\, won a country music Grammy\, and has collaborated with pretty much everyone from Barbra Streisand to Bonnie Raitt\, from Brad Paisley to Luciano Pavarotti. \nNo Depression music magazine says\, “John Jorgenson has a rare kind of genius in that he’s equally comfortable and capable of playing Buck Owens\, Beatles riffs\, or jazz leads…” URL:https://grandvision.org/event/john-jorgenson-quintet-2/ LOCATION:The Grand Annex\, 434 W. 6th St.\, San Pedro\, CA\, 90731 CATEGORIES:Featured Events,Grand Vision Season,The Grand Annex ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://grandvision.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Resized-for-web-7.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240129T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240129T200000 DTSTAMP:20260404T143940 CREATED:20231120T195157Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231220T172906Z UID:10000556-1706554800-1706558400@grandvision.org SUMMARY:TEAM TAIKO Drum Classes Winter Session DESCRIPTION:We believe in creating unique opportunities for people to meet their neighbors and engage in their community in a new way.
