Hello Everyone, I am sponsoring this next event with Jazz Royalty. Colombia's Justo Almario has both recorded and had his own compositions recorded with some of the biggest names in music: Patrice Rushen, Roy Ayers, Mongo Santa Maria and too many to mention.
After retiring from UCLA, having been recruited by Kenny Burrell to help build the Jazz Studies program, he now makes his home in Ventura County.
His most recent recording features music of his homeland, and musical reflections of the many years he spent in New York, both touring and performing. A concert for this project is planned for later this year.
Justo is excited to bring this celebration to Ventura County and will be accompanied by some of the best performers on the scene today:
Randi Tico - Bass
Clayton Cameron - Drums
Kojo Ono - Piano
