The USF New Tampa Jazz Series will present acclaimed guitarist DAVE STRYKER (featured in the current issue of Jazz & Blues Florida) with the USF FACULTY JAZZ ENSEMBLE, in concert on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023 at the New Tampa Performing Arts Center. This is the second show in the exciting new partnership between the USF School of Music and the Tampa Jazz Club with the brand-new arts facility, located at 8550 Hunters Village Rd. in New Tampa.
Known for his distinctive sound, DAVE STRYKER is among the most prolific artists in jazz. He’s recorded nearly 40 albums as a leader, with the last five going to #1 on the JazzWeek Radio chart. His most recent, ‘Prime,’ features his organ trio fresh off a tour opening for Steely Dan, and Dave’s sound is influenced by the decade he spent in Stanley Turrentine’s band. He’s currently a faculty member at both Rutgers and Indiana University.
Dave’s return to Tampa will reunite him with the USF FACULTY JAZZ ENSEMBLE, old friends who will fall into a groove together right away. Come enjoy some world-class jazz, and check out the beautiful New Tampa Performing Arts Center!
