I headed to Goodbye Blue Monday in Bushwyck, Brooklyn, to see guitarist Nico Soffiato as part of his monthly residency there. He plays on the third Saturday of every month, usually with his trio plus a special guest. This month’s guest was saxophonist Noah Kaplan. Nico has been my guest on The Jazz Session.
Here are my photos and tweets from the show. If you’d like to get these photos and tweets as they’re happening, follow me on Twitter.
