MUSIC FOR LUNCH!
The music is free and you can bring your own lunch or buy ours - every Thursday & Friday 12-1 ! 12/04 Friday: J.D. Westmoreland Jazz/Rock/Americana J.D. Westmoreland
has been a fixture in the Memphis music scene for well over a decade.
In that time, his multi-instrument performances as a session player,
composer, arranger, and live musician have reached near legendary
status. J.D has the unique ability to play with musicians of all
generations, genre, and notoriety. In one session he could be playing
alongside rockers like Willy DeVille and then just as easily keep up with the likes of veteran jazzman, Herman Green. J.D. was also a founder of Memphis jam band Delta Grass
that covered an enormous amount of musical ground each and every time
they took the stage. J.D.'s music is an unusual mix of classical,
jazz, and otherworldly music influenced by interesting world music and
synthesizing it in ways previously never thought of. As musician and
reviewer William Lee Ellis wrote in the Commercial Appeal, "Westmoreland covers more ground in 30 minutes than most composers bother to do in a lifetime".
