The Dover Weinberg Quartet - Sep 09

Written by Administrator Tuesday, 01 September 2009 06:15

Now working on their 10th year of Tuesday night musical gathering, the Dover Weinberg Quartet  at Duff’s Garage is fast becoming a habit for musicians and fans, alike.  KMHD’s Blues Palace host, Tom Addis, has said that this is probably the best unknown band in the area. While the music is blues centered, it can run from blues to bop to country. No two Tuesdays will be the same, except for the fact that these guys obviously enjoy what they are doing, along with the many guests invited to sit in.
The DWQ consists of Dover Weinberg on keys, Chris Carlson on guitar, Jimi Bott on drums, and Dave Kahl on bass. Vocal duties are passed around and give a brilliant variety to the night, especially when coupled with instrumentals that range from T-Bone Walker to Charlie Parker or Jimmy McGriff.  While Chris is in San Francisco with his wife, Duffy Bishop, for the next few months, filling in for him will be Alan Hager, a consummate guitarist and vocalist who has covered the spot on numerous occasions. Chris will make the trek back home periodically, but in either case the spot is solidly covered.
Music runs from 9pm to midnight (or later). Cover is $2. Duff’s Garage is located on S.E. 7th Avenue, at the corner of S.E. Market Street. Bring your party, bring yourself, but certainly be prepared to have a great time with a lot of your friends. Tuesdays at Duff’s Garage with the Dover Weinberg Quartet will feel like a party in your living room without having to clean up afterward. Oh yeah, your living room probably doesn’t have a full service bar in it.
