In less than a week, former touring guitarist Bob Sneider will deliver what promises to be an unforgettable jazz performance.
He will be joined by his trio — bassist Marc Demuth and drummer Pit Dahm — with special guest Chien-Chien Lu, whose presence on vibraphone and percussion will add an extra layer of energy to the evening.
The guitarist will be giving a workshop the night before his performance at Centre des Sociétés, 1 March from 4 to 6 pm, for which you can get the tickets here.
