ADAM COHEN, with Todd Hunter and DAN MASON

Thu., Aug. 3. ADAM COHEN.  Keri Kelsey, with the help of Jerome Pittman, has assembled quite the posse drawn from the very best musicians in Los Angeles to support the Gardenia Open Mike, presented every Tuesday evening.  Among these musicians has been bassist Adam Cohen, whose eyes and ears extend “beyond the bass” into the role of impresario, gathering the best musicians from his professional connections to curate his own evenings at The Gardenia.  Attending these evenings has been to be privileged to witness, and be in the company of, such talent.  This evening’s keyboardist is Todd Hunter, and the vocalist is DAN MASON, an Open Mike standout, whose voice is an aromatic tincture of honey, vinegar, and smoke with a homeopathic whiff of soul deserving of a wider audience, and for whom we have been patiently awaiting the opportunity to hear a full evening dedicated to his singular stylings.
