JazzFresno, the Fresno County Public Library, and the
Friends of Woodward Park Library will host a free and open to the public Jazz @ the Library presentation on Tuesday, February 20, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. at the Woodward Park Regional County
Library, located at 944 E. Perrin Ave. (Champlain & Perrin), Fresno, CA 93720.
The Hammond B3 organ has been an important instrument in church, jazz, blues, rock and pop music. The title of the February
presentation is “The Classic Hammond Sound…In a Suitcase!” Please join us as presenter Jon Hammond (no relation), an internationally known electronic organist, takes us on a journey
exploring the development and use of the Hammond B3 organ and its contemporary surrogate, the SK1 Hammond. Jon will be joined by Gary Newmark (drums) and Rich Severson (guitar) in playing
what Jon describes as “Swinging Funky Jazz and Blues.” - Fresno County Woodward Park Regional Library
