This week I visited the Holiday Inn in Oakland at Bridges, Savoy Restaurant in the Strip District, Ava Lounge in East Liberty and the Shadow Lounge in East Liberty.
My first stop was at the Holiday Inn in Oakland at Bridges where the Black Political Empowerment Project, in association with the Pittsburgh Jazz Society, presented “A Musical Fun- Raiser for B-PEP” on Easter Monday. Musicians from all over the Pittsburgh area came out to show support for B-PEP.

My next stop was at Savoy Restaurant in the Strip District where more jazz was being celebrated with the Roger Humphries Trio and Eric Susoeff performed for the music lovers at Savoy Restaurant.

My next was at the Ava Lounge in East Liberty where even more jazz was being celebrated with Howie and the crew every Monday night. If you haven’t come to Ava for this event, you are really missing out.
My final destination was at the Shadow Lounge where hip-hop band Formula 412 headlined a show for a sold out crowd featuring singer and songwriter Ricardo Iamuuri as the opening act.
