Jared Hochberg Quintet. We play actively throughout the Chicago area, and this past June and November my group headlined at  the 'Jazz Showcase'. The group features some of the best young up-and-coming musicians in the country, and the pianist, Shane Simpson, currently attends the prestigious 'New England Conservatory' in Boston. It also feature bassist Dan Chmilinski, who currently attends the Juilliard school in Manhattan.

THE STARDUST SEXTET AT WORLD OF BEER

Come join us on Saturday, July 19, starting at 9:30pm, for the Evanston premiere of Chicago?s swingin'est jazz group, the Stardust Sextet, at World of Beer-Evanston.

The Stardust Sextet is a smaller group taken from one of Chicago?s premier groups, the Stardust Big Band, and features the classy jazz sounds of the 1950?s and 1960?s,  a time when martinis were in, class was where it was at, and the cool sounds of west coast jazz were everywhere.

World of Beer is located at 1601 Sherman Ave., in the heart of Downtown Evanston.
In the words of the Stardust Sextet?s leader, Jon McGahan: ?Jazz should be fun, and we?ve got the band to prove it!?
