YOU BETTER BET

New York City organist/pianist, Brian Charette, has established himself as a leading voice in modern jazz. Charette is a Hammond U.S.A, Hammond Europe, I.K Multimedia, and Casio endorsed, Cellar Live recording artist. Charette's new Cellar Live release, You Don't Know Jack!, is a Jack McDuff tribute album conceived by Charette and Cellar boss Cory Weeds. Both Weeds and Charette contribute original tunes here alongside McDuff originals. The duo are joined by Jon Lee on drums and Dave Sikula on guitar on this killer album which Charette hopes will remind us all of those swinging Harlem juke joint times of days gone by.
