Richie Cannata's Monday Night Jam: Singer-Songwriter in New York

About Richie Cannata's Monday Night Jam

Richie Cannata’s Monday Night Jam is a weekly New York City session led by the saxophonist best known for his years touring and recording with Billy Joel. Based around a working-band ethic, the night brings rotating players through a loose set of standards, blues, and rock repertoire shaped in real time. Cannata’s long career as a sideman and bandleader informs the format, keeping the focus on listening and quick decisions rather than polish. The jam favors groove and ensemble interplay over display.
