Thanks to everyone who came out to see guitarist Dave Stryker at the New Tampa Performing Arts Center on April 25th. What a great finale for the 2025-26 Tampa Jazz Club season! (and for the "New Tampa Jazz Nights" series).

Dave's band featured longtime USF Jazz Studies Director (recently retired) Jack Wilkins on tenor saxophone, and USF’s Mark Neuenschwander on bass, with University of Central Florida's Per Danielsson on piano, and the acclaimed McClenty Hunter on drums (who also now teaches at UCF).

We've got big plans for next season, including TWO shows from multi Grammy-nominated composer Chuck Owen and a special July 1st performance from the award-winning pianist/composer Simon Lasky. A lot more shows to be announced.
