Guitarists John Stowell and Gustavo Assis-Brasil present an evening of intimate guitar duets, including standards, Brazilian tunes, and modern jazz classics

"Gustavo Assis-Brasil is an accomplished guitarist with a remarkably fluid linear concept and a distinctive, ultra-sophisticated harmonic sense."

-- BILL MILKOWSKI, Jazz Times Magazine

"John Stowell plays his amplified guitar as if he were surrounded by fine crystal… the type of slow burning, sustained energy that you hear in players that practice all the time."

--Downbeat Magazine

10:00 PM Molly Zenobia

"Piano Meets Cello And Makes... A PIALLO!

Molly Zenobia on piano and voice will be accompanied on a few of her kick-ass songs by cellist Valerie Thompson of Goli. If you’ve never heard Molly’s music (www.mollyzenobia.com), this is the show for you. Her style is as soulful and touching as it is epic and we promise you won’t be disappointed.

For some more music, check out songs “King Aeolus” and “Colors Run” on WMBR’s archived “Bats In The Belfry” show online -- look for archived streams at http://www.wmbr.org/cgi-bin/arch. “King Aeolus” can be found on the August 04, 2008 show at 1.34.02 in the 2-hour show, and “Colors Run” can be found on the August 11, 2008 show at 1.42.54."
