Jimmy Norman Sings at New York City's Whole Foods

Jimmy Norman, backed by the Sean Harkness Trio, will be playing at the Whole Foods Market at 808 Columbus Avenue, at the corner of 97th Street, in New York City on April 30th and May 14 and 28. Times are 5 to 7 p.m.

Sponsored by the Jazz Foundation of America, Norman’s concerts celebrate Mikell’s Jazz Club, which was once on the site now occupied by Whole Foods. Run by Mike and Pat Mikell, from 1969 to 1991, it was a regular venue for New York's top studio and session musicians who would turn up for jam sessions with major soul, funk and jazz artists visiting the city.

Guitarist Marvin Horn substituted for Sean Harkness on April 16.
