302 NE 6th AVE. GAINESVILLE FL
Some of Gainesville's finest jazz musicians will gather on Thursday March 30th to play and pay tribute to their friend and former bandmate, Dave Sloane, at the Thomas Center in Gainesville.
After graduating from the University of Miami and playing gigs in South Florida, Dave had a long and productive career in Gainesville, playing tenor sax and flugelhorn. He worked with Frank Sullivan, Robbie Blake, Cathy DeWitt's MoonDancer, and the Rhythm & Blues Revue, among others. Dave was a beloved teacher among students of all ages. No one will forget his twinkling blue eyes or his encouraging voice saying "That sounded great, man!" He formed a horn quartet, Dave's Dilemma to play contemporary jazz and originals that also played at UF/Shands hospital every Christmas.
Players will include Cathy DeWitt, Nick DeCarlis, Larry Newcomb, David Ottenberg, Taylor Roberts, Rob Rothschild and Thomas Royal, with more surprises to come.
