Citizen Swing — Connor Law + Reggie Headen

January 10 @ 6:00 pm

Join us for Citizen Swing, our new twice-monthly Wednesday jazz nights, starting January 10th. Come through for a night of excellent, curated local jazz talent and classic cocktails. The fun starts at 6pm when we spin up some cool, old jazz vinyl, and then continues at 7pm with live sets by Connor Law and Reggie Headen. Free!

CONNOR LAW:
Connor Law is a freelance bassist, bandleader and composer based in Asheville, NC. He got his start in the music business after graduating from UNCA in 2017 by going on the road as a tour manager for the progressive bluegrass band, Jon Stickley Trio. After leaving that position he realized his passion was in performance, and more specifically, jazz performance. He began working as a full time musician in Asheville in 2018 and has been performing with many of the top musicians in the area since then.

REGGIE HEADEN:
Reggie Headen is a native North Carolinian and graduate of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City. He sees the stage as a medium of many possibilities to connect and engage an audience. He started his professional career as a featured performer at New York’s famous Broadway concert venue Town Hall, playing to giants and peers in the industry. In fall 2018, Reggie moved to Asheville and since moving, he’s had what he calls “A Return to Jazz.”

“The vocal prowess, power and the raw emotion that comes from this diminutive human, is palpable. From tender nuanced notes to full growls, groans and moans, he commands our attention by the sheer and unabashed righteousness of his delivery.” – Peggy Ratusz, acclaimed vocalist and the “blues mama” of WNC
