Location
The Jazz House is located at 3192 Adeline Street in Berkeley, a half block southwest of the Ashby BART.  (Please note there is an incorrect Adeline Street in Oakland.)

The Jazz House is a small, non-descript warehouse located next to the police station where Martin Luther King and Adeline Street meet.  A blue light and a peculiar "Ant" sign reside above the entrance.

About Damon Zick and Friends:
Damon Zick and Friends play their own unique brand of original jazz emphasizing melody, groove and communication. Damon's compositions provide an eclectic wealth of departure points for some top-notch improvisation.

The band began playing together ten years ago while attending the prestigious Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY. While there they had the opportunity to study and perform with such artists as Bob Brookmeyer, Bill Holman, Benny Carter, Eliane Elias, Steve Vai, Joe Henderson, Mike Cain, Ralph Alessi and many others. Since then they have gone on to perform concerts and master classes across the United States.

Members have performed and/or recorded with Steve Coleman, Ani DiFranco, Ravi Coltrane, Joe LaBarbera, Vinny Golia, Bob Mintzer, the New World Symphony, the Woody Herman orchestra, and many others. Their follow up CD to "The Outing" is due out this summer.
