Guitarist Bill Coleman begins at 6 p.m. The Fairhope musician has a resume that includes gigs with Blue Mitchell and Stanley Turrentine among others and earned raves from Downbeat Magazine’s Leonard Feather. He appeared with symphonic ensembles and pop stars like Marilyn McCoo, The Drifters, Nell Carter and many others.
Alvin King and the Fifth K’Nection Band take the stage next. The quintet are firmly in the Post-Bop vein with material that ranges from Chick Corea, Dizzy Gillespie, and Thelonious Monk, to funk-infused soul or smoother fare.
Between the acts, MOJO holds a lightning-fast vote for a slate of officers and directors.
Entrance is $15, $10 for MOJO members. Cash raffle and door prizes to be drawn. Cash bar and light food menu available.
