World renown Lionel Loueke will be talking with us during Jazz from the Market before his shows at Snug Harbor. Loueke is an innovative jazz guitarist whose highly rhythmic, percussive technique adds a new dimension to straight-ahead jazz playing.
Lionel Loueke was born in the west African country of Benin and has performed and recorded with Terence Blanchard, Herbie Hancock, Diane Reeves, Cassandra Wilson, and Wayne Shorter, among many others --- and his own recordings are fantastic.
