With eight CD’s as a leader and more sideman sides than even he can count…or remember, this native New Yorker’s performance/recording résumé reflects his venerable tenor tenure and reads like a virtual "Who's Who of Jazz."After graduating from Rutgers University Jazz Studies Program in 1981, Jerry joined the legendary Lionel Hampton Orchestra and continued his association with Hamp into the new millennium. Next came a long, rewarding stint with master organist Jack McDuff & his "Heatin' System." Additionally Jerry has worked with organists Jimmy McGriff, Joey DeFrancesco, Bobby Forrester, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Mel Rhyne, trombone great Al Grey, piano giants George Cables and Cedar Walton, drum legends Roy Haynes and Jimmy Cobb as well as guitarist/singer George Benson, guitarist Earl Klugh, bassist Keter Betts, singer Mel Tormé and a host of other legendary musicians.In 1990, Jerry became a charter member and featured soloist with Harry Connick Jr.'s newly formed big band. Since then Jerry has toured the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia with Harry and was also part of Connick's Broadway musical production, "Thou Shalt Not" and appeared on stage as well as in the orchestra. Thanks to his talent, and long association with Connick, Jerry was part of the “house band” on, Connick’s daytime television variety show for its two year run.Jerry, a “musician’s musician,” who is also a first class showman in the truest sense of the word, blows his horn with his entire body and delights audiences with his all-in, soulful playing. Depending on the tune, Weldon’s warm fat tenor sound can roll and roar like a thunderstorm or gentle you like a warm summer breeze…and it always, always resonates far beyond the listener’s ear, Whether he’s walkin’ the crowded bar at Showmans in Harlem or wending his way through packed candlelit tables at Birdland in Midtown, Jerry Weldon is a tenor force that cannot be contained. He becomes the music and brings the audience with him on a communal tuneful journey. This mastery of the message, and the medium, has kept Weldon working steady for four plus decades. Jerry’s latest recording,spent two months on the Jazz Week charts and he at work on a new CDWhen Jerry was fourteen, his jazz fan father took him to see Stan Getz at The Village Vanguard. In that moment, the young saxophonist knew he wanted to have a life in music.“Then you have to be good,” Jerry Sr. cautioned.Clearly, Jerry Jr. listened.Jerry performs regularly as a bandleader and in-demand sideman at festivals and jazz venues around the world. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/old-lyme/jerry-weldon-quartet/100001417471849459 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, festivals, workshops, live-music - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 22.68, max: 49.16, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Old Lyme - **state**: CT - **country**: United States - **location**: The Side Door - **lat**: 41.32454070000001 - **long**: -72.32636630000002 - **full address**: The Side Door , 85 Lyme St, Old Lyme, United States - **location**: The Side Door ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Jerry Weldon Quartet - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/beab92e40a650112aa2d20293198f4ed8c617f6e8687cffc54799bd39716232c-rimg-w691-h1024-dc030202-gmir.jpg?v=1750423331 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Jerry Weldon Quartet being held? - **A:** Jerry Weldon Quartet takes place on Fri, 18 Jul, 2025 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 18 Jul, 2025 at 10:30 pm at The Side Door , 85 Lyme St, Old Lyme, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Jerry Weldon Quartet? - **A:** Ticket prices for Jerry Weldon Quartet range from USD 23 to USD 49 depending on the ticket type.
