Jefferson Voorhees solo
Bonnie Watts and City Reign

Jefferson Voorhees resides in Albuquerque and is one of the regions most versatile and sought after percussionists. His resume includes such projects as the Tom Guralnick Trio, Bayou Seco, Stove, and Wagogo among many others. Once a decade, Voorhees performs a solo show. In the 1980s it was in San Francisco, in the 1990s, it was at the old Outpost on Morningside. This decade’s offering is an opportunity for him to merge the various musical avenues he’s been travelling lately. He will be performing on an expanded percussion set-up that reflects the South Asian, Middle Eastern, and African textures he’s been exploring with Sama Duo, Rahim al Haj, and Accra Trane Station, as well as the avant garde direction of his work with Out of Context and the UFO Ensemble.

Recently moved to Albuquerque, vocalist Bonnie Watts has been performing her jazz and R&B inspired music at Yanni’s Opa Bar since 2006. Featuring Bonnie Watts on vocals, her band City Reign comprises some of the area’s best musicians— Arnold Bodmer, piano; Cindy Tag, woodwinds; Michael Olivola, bass; and Jim Magnarella, drums.
