The Hard Bop Messengers presents "Summer of Love!" Join us for a groovy stroll down memory lane as John Covelli and crew explore some far out tunes from the late 60's, Hard Bop style.

John Covelli knew he had something special when he assembled the Hard Bop Messengers and he gives them all room to shine.  Nick Savage, Chris Meschede, Luke Sailor, and Ben Shafer are, like himself, of the esteemed Webster University jazz program.  Matt Krieg, originally from St Louis, puts the vocals where they need to be.

Covelli has played in dozens of bands over the years and learned just as many styles. The Hard Bop Messengers sound is infused with such influences, including Latin, funk, chamber-classical, soul, blues and rock, and he hopes the result will have the audience tapping toes and bobbing heads along with every tune. Come hear some hard bop music that will excite!
