Mike Greensill & Ruth Davies – Sunday, September 5 at 4 pm

*** LIVE STREAM LINK HERE ***

Every year, pianist Mike Greensill is joined by a changing roster of friends in a Labor Day weekend performance at Old First Concerts. This year, Greensill is joined by Ruth Davies on bass in a program of songs composed by jazz musicians: from Erroll Garner’s Misty to George Shearing’s Lullaby of Birdland, and of course many Duke Ellington swingers and ballads plus the odd Mike Greensill composition.
