Bop Shop Records and the Rochester Indie Musician Spotlight are pleased to present this concert together: Bob Sneider and The Merry Gentlemen: A Holiday Show For Charity. Tom, Jann (and everyone at Bop Shop Records) and Dan and the Spotlight team care about our community, and about amazing music. What better way to celebrate this season of giving than with an interview and performance with Rochester's own Jazz Ambassador, Bob Sneider. Bob and the Merry Gentlemen's album, "Christmas On the Rocks," features Bob's trio and some amazing guests. For this show, Bob will be joined by his trio (Danny Ziemann, bass; Mike Melito, drums), along with Mike Kaupa, trumpet, and Grant Le, recorder (yes, be ready for some bebop recorder). Bob just might pull some surprise guests from his Santa hat, too. Tempro, a social action organization that's part of Temple B'rith Kodesh in Rochester, provides temporary housing for more than 150 families a year. All proceeds from this show will go to Tempro.
