Sam First Bar & Records
We travel to LA's Sam First Bar, the most unique jazz club in the world
LOS ANGELES: the most innovative new music may never be heard in the famous concert halls.
The invitingly intimate spaces of jazz clubs may be where we can hear it. Those unassuming “bars/restaurants” are serious music workshops that foster the daring experimentation, and rapid interplay between performer and audience, that cutting-edge music innovation demands.
Sam First Bar & Records is a shining example of the essential role the jazz club plays in the production of new music. This unique music venue - strategically positioned within walking distance of Los Angeles International Airport – offers live music seven days a week, a weekly jam session, masterclasses and even its own record label.
Sam First’s Executive Artistic Director, Dave Robaire, take us inside to hear the music between today and tomorrow!
