A Modern Supergroup: The Bad Plus with Chris Potter & Craig Taborn
HOLLYWOOD, CA – In a rare convergence of contemporary jazz giants, members of the groundbreaking ensemble The Bad Plus join forces with saxophone titan Chris Potter and visionary pianist Craig Taborn for a special residency at Blue Note Los Angeles. The quartet will perform four sets across Tuesday, March 10, and Wednesday, March 11, 2026.
This high-concept project finds the ensemble revisiting and reimagining the formative repertoire of Keith Jarrett’s American Quartet. For Reid Anderson and Dave King (founding members of The Bad Plus), the music of the original Jarrett/Redman/Haden/Motian lineup served as the foundation for their own boundary-pushing careers.
Reaffirming a Legacy of Freedom
The performance is described not merely as a tribute, but as a continuation of the “American Quartet spirit”—a fearless commitment to musical dialogue that balances swing, freedom, and folk-like melodicism. The lineup brings together four distinct, powerhouse voices:

Chris Potter: Widely considered one of the most commanding tenor saxophonists of his generation.

Craig Taborn: A pianist celebrated for his technical brilliance and avant-garde improvisational depth.

Reid Anderson (Bass) & Dave King (Drums): The rhythmic engine behind The Bad Plus, known for redefining the modern jazz trio through rock-influenced energy and complex interplay.

The Live Experience
Audiences can expect an evening of “raw, exploratory energy.” By merging their own modern sensibilities with the seminal structures of Jarrett’s 1970s masterworks, the group aims to highlight the lasting relevance of that era’s experimental jazz for today’s landscape. Given the technical prowess of all four members, these shows are anticipated to be among the most musically dense and creatively adventurous dates on the 2026 Blue Note calendar.

A Time Machine in a New York Home: Open Fist Presents ‘Brownstone’
LOS ANGELES, CA — Open Fist Theatre Company presents the Los Angeles premiere of Brownstone, a “bittersweet comedic drama” by Catherine Butterfield. Directed by Ron West, the production transforms the stage into a chronological time machine, unfolding within the walls of a single New York brownstone across three distinct eras.
The play explores the echoes of the past, illustrating how the cadences of life change while human desires remain timeless. The stories of three different couples occupy the same space simultaneously, creating a “supernatural” atmosphere where the walls reverberate with the ghosts of previous tenants.
Three Eras, One Address
The narrative hopscotches through time, introducing audiences to residents from different centuries:

1937: Stephen and Davia (Matthew Goodrich and Chelsea Spirito), a pampered, wealthy couple of the Great Depression era who dream of escaping to Paris.

1978: Deena and Maureen (Rosie Byrne and Amber Tiara), starry-eyed aspiring actresses struggling to find their big break in the gritty New York of the late ’70s.

1999: Jason and Jessica (Isaac W. Jay and Jade Santana), a self-absorbed “power couple” navigating the cutthroat ambitions of the new millennium.

The Creative Vision
Playwright Catherine Butterfield was inspired by the unique architecture and “almost supernatural” feel of classic brownstones. Director Ron West (known for deLEARious and This Week, This Week) highlights the synchronicity between the eras, noting that while social conventions shift, the underlying human experience rarely does.
