Monday Night Jazz at the Cabaret features Keven Aland and The Hot Club of SRQ Quartet. Their sound can best be described as a 21st century hybrid of the famous “Quintette du Hot Club de France." The likeness of these two ensembles is the violin and guitar create the fire and magic that is so captivating. Similar to the relationship of violinist Stephane Grappelli and guitarist Django Reinhardt of the "QDHCDF," Keven Aland has cultivated special musical connections with each guitarist in the Hot Club of SRQ. While Hot Club SRQ pays homage to the creators and masters of this sound, they have forged their own unique sound.

In the recent 2019 Sarasota Jazz Festival The Jeremy Carter Quartet wowed audiences on the festival's contemporary jazz stage. Widely believe to be the next "hot rising jazz artist" to emerge from the St. Petersburg scene, Jeremy plays a lyrical and soulful saxophone which runs the full range from a straight-ahead classical style to a more progressive vibe and contemporary flavor. Jeremy has frequently performed throughout the bay area with Whitney James, Synia Carroll, James Suggs, Gumbi Ortiz and many more. We look forward to his heading his own quartet at the Monday Night Jazz Series. If this is the first time you hear Jeremy, we promise you won't want it to be your last.
