Sarah Sharp Quintet

🐘Early Show

Daniel Ramirez of Texas Lifestyle Magazine said it well, " Sharp’s intoxicating voice has been a mainstay . . . long enough to cement her place among Austin’s elite music-makers." The Elephant Room has been lucky to be a part of all that. She's an act you've got to see!

The Brew

🐘 9pm

THE BREW This band of brothers has been creating stellar Latin infused original jazz since 1980. They are no doubt an Austin treasure!

Red Young Trio

🐘8pm

You've heard Red's work on a ton of name artists' albums, in film and television soundtracks. Whether he's playing organ or piano, leading or supporting, he's a powerhouse and Austin's lucky to have him. If you call yourself an Elephant Room regular and haven't heard Red Young . . . well you better get down here cause Red's music is required listening!

Jon Blondell & friends

🐘Early Show

Fireball front man Jon Blondell gets the jam going early leading his own group—featuring Dr. Jim Rose—for a fun repertoire of songs from all over the musical spectrum brought to the jazz stage as only Blondell dare to do.

BLONDELL!

🐘 9pm

Bigger than life, "Fireball Front Man" Jon Blondell and his band bring a fun repertoire of songs from all over the musical spectrum brought to the jazz stage as only Blondell can do featuring Dr. Jim Rose. At this point, we celebrate every MONTH with this guy!

Mitch Watkins Trio

🐘Early Show

At 13 Mitch started playing guitar with a surf band in McAllen, Texas. Years later he's traveling the world on multiple tours with Leonard Cohen. You're gonna want to hear the sounds that have endeared this master guitarist to so many and who Jazz Times Magazine calls "a man for all musical seasons".

Jitterbug Vipers

🐘Early Show

Jitterbug Vipers perform 1930s-style "viper jazz" with a rock 'n' roll twist. With Bree Romeo on vocals, Francie “Meaux Jeaux” White on stand-up bass, and Masumi Jones on drums, they’re the “original and only trippy-swingadelic 1930s rock band on Planet Earth.”

The Jitterbug Vipers perform every first and third Wednesday evening in the basement.

Dr. James Polk's CENTERPEACE
