Get ready for an unforgettable night as we welcome back the incomparable Dave Bennett— last seen bringing the ballroom down in 2018! Known for his high-energy performances and infectious charm, Dave lights up the stage with everything from swinging jazz to foot-stomping rockabilly. Whether he’s tearing it up on the clarinet, rocking out on the piano, or belting out a classic tune, Dave delivers a one-of-a-kind show that’s not to be missed. Don’t miss this long-awaited return — it's going to be a night to remember!
Dave has been a featured soloist at Carnegie Hall with The New York Pops and has been featured with 35 other US and Canadian orchestras including Nashville, Houston, Detroit, Rochester, Omaha, Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, Orlando, San Antonio, Jacksonville, Portland, OR and Portland, ME. Some of his annual appearances include The Elkhart Jazz Festival, The Suncoast Classic Jazz Festival, The Arizona Classic Jazz Festival, The Sacramento Hot Jazz Jubilee, The Clambake Music Festival, and The Redwood Coast Music Festival.
Dave has been featured on NPR Radio’s “Jazz at Riverwalk.” He made his European debut in 2008 at The Bern Jazz Festival(Switzerland) in a combo with jazz legends and Benny Goodman alumni guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli and vibraphonist Peter Appleyard.
Downbeat Magazine said it best: “Bennett is a player superbly well balanced between purity and power. Bennett injects three heady shots of adrenalin that bring the music sharply to life.”
