For one night only, THE BLUE NOTE JAZZ CLUB, located in the heart of New York's West Village, will bring an inventive type of jazz and blues to the venue. J.VIEWZ LIVE is very excited to be honored with an APRIL 5th engagement at the club, which has hosted the likes of Ray Charles, Sarah Vaughn, Lionel Hampton, and Dizzy Gillespie. With two sets at 8:00PM and 10:00PM, J.Viewz will play the sound that has made them one of the most exciting new acts today. However, this performance will be a different type of J.Viewz Live with the set being divided between electro free-style jamming and soulful acoustic playing - a 'Plugged vs. Unplugged' type of breakdown. The mellow-jazzy-jammy vibe of J.Viewz live mixed with the intimacy of The Blue Note makes this show the Monday show to see.
