If you plan on being in the big city (NYC that is) this Friday, head out to La Lanterna’s Bar Next Door to hear saxophonist, EWI player and drummer Adam Niewood play live.

Son of the late Gerry Niewood, this jazz improviser and composer is carrying on his father’s musical traditions without skipping a beat. Earlier in June he performed some of his dad’s never-before-heard compositions at Trumpets, found after the elder Niewood’s death in a plane crash last year.

For more information on Niewood and to look through his calendar of events, please visit his website. To learn how he has been coping since his father’s untimely passing, check out one of Zan Stewart’s last published articles for the Star-Ledger.
