Felix Pastorius
9:00PM
Tonight features Felix Pastorius.
Making music comes natural to 28 year old Felix Pastorius. A family tradition, his grandfather John Francis Pastorius II, affectionately referred to as "Jack", was a stand-up jazz drummer, that would sing while he would swing. Following in his footsteps one of Jack's three sons, Felix's dad, John Francis Pastorius III, took up the drums and later switched to bass. He was affectionately referred to as "Jaco".
Spending most his life living in Florida, he was always surrounded by a house full of instruments. While studying them all, he landed on the bass, or maybe it landed on him. He's earned his place, learned to navigate, and here to take you for a ride. He is affectionately referred to as "Felix".
Ron Affif Trio
11:00PM- 3AM
Founded in 1996 by Guitarist Ron Affif, Monday nights at Zinc quickly became the new spot to hear cutting edge jazz rooted in Bebop. Developed with bassist Essiet Okon Essiet and Drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts, Mondays grew into the hottest, hippest, and most innovative jazz session of our time. Affif's style is reminiscent of Wes Montgomery and George Benson, and Benson once described Affif playing as his, "favorite type of guitar player... one that plays with fire."
Ron Affif continues to preside over the weekly affair pushing the boundaries of the jazz guitar trio along with many highly acclaimed musicians in his rhythm section.
