# Event Details - **Event Name**: Ken Walker Sextet - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 06:30 pm - **Event Description**: For over two decades—more than 250 consecutive months—Ken Walker and his sextet commanded the Dazzle stage on the last Friday of every month. In addition to these regular performances, Ken collaborated with countless renowned musicians and often enjoyed listening to other performances as a guest at the club. To us, Ken was family. Ken Walker was more than just a performer; he was family and a dear friend to the club, me, and many others who came to appreciate his bass playing and words. Ken was a man of immense gratitude, always expressing his appreciation through his music and words. My lasting image of Ken is that of a giant with a beaming smile and his best friend joyously riding on his back. Dazzle evolved alongside Ken and his original sextet—Paul Romaine, Al Hood, Peter Sommer, Jeff Jenkins, and Dave Corbus. While the lineup shifted over the years, Ken’s commitment to the Colorado jazz community never wavered. On Friday, February 27, the Dazzle family invites you to celebrate Ken Walker and his musical community.: 11:00 AM: Keith Oxman and Ken’s former students, Aidan Nowell, Eli Acosta and Stevie Pearlman, take the stage to kick off our Friday Lunch series. Musicians are encouraged to bring their instruments and sit in for a community jam session to honor the legacy of Ken Walker.
