Jazz Brunch at the Priory Restaurant with the Rick Stone Trio February 1, 2009

Guitarist Rick Stone, bassist David Kingsnorth & drummer Andy Watson play at the Priory Restaurant, Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Robert Silverstein of 20th Century Guitar calls Rick Stone "One of the finest straight-ahead guitarists on the current NYC jazz scene." From fresh interpretations of jazz standards, to lyrically evocative originals, New York City based guitarist Rick Stone is an artist with a clear musical vision. His fluid, full-bodied sound pays homage to the great jazz guitar masters of the past while maintaining a personal style with a contemporary edge. Jim Carlton writes in Just Jazz Guitar “His lyrical lines and imaginative ideas on a mix of originals and hip standards reflect his maturity as an interpreter of great tunes and his mastery as an artistically adept player. His tone is bright and crisp, some would say traditional, and his ideas are fresh." Playing with Rick at the Priory will be bassist David Kingsnorth and drummer Andy Watson. There is an all you can eat buffet for $15.95, no cover.

The Priory is located at 233 W Market St, Newark, NJ. For info and reservations call: (973) 639-7885 or (973) 242-8012
