Out Every Night

[CRITIC’S PICK]

Tim Warfield’s Organ Band Various times. Wednesday, February 19, through Sunday, February 23. e Harold and Dorothy Steward Center For Jazz, 3536 Washington Avenue. $10 to $41. 314-571-6000. Tenor saxophonist Tim Warfield’s comprehension of post-bop traditions and trends in jazz is both utterly masterful and more than a little mysterious. The York, Pennsylvania, native has a killer resume (he’s worked with Shirley Scott, Nicholas Payton, Stefon Harris and, significantly, Christian McBride for five years), but he commands such a para

doxical lightness of touch and intensity of tone, a way with phrasing that seems instantly familiar (Rollins and Coltrane will always come to mind) even if one has never heard “Ode to Billie Joe,” “Wade in the Water” or “’Round Midnight” quite the way Warfield conceives them. He’s an essential voice in contemporary jazz and an always exhilarating performer. The Band Plays On: Warfield’s five-day St. Louis engagement features his organ band, likely with the veteran Pat Bianchi on keys, and special guest (and longtime St. Louis favorite) Terell Stafford on trumpet. The group is an ideal way to savor Warfield’s supple and cool vision.

John Calvin Abney. | RAMBO

John Calvin Abney 8 p.m. Saturday, February 22. e Focal Point, 2720 Sutton Boulevard. $15 to $20. 314-560-2778. Eagle-eyed fans of local music may have noticed that Beth Bombara often has a special guest augmenting her three-man backing band. John Calvin Abney sits in on keyboard when he can, and he contributed to Bombara’s 2019 Evergreen LP; that role of valued sideman was honed during Abney’s time accompanying celebrated singer-songwriter John Moreland. But Abney’s own work is beginning to take its share of the spotlight as well, and last year’s Safe Passage puts Abney’s sweet, slightly strained voice against acoustic guitar, piano and a little vibraphone to fill out his heartfelt and keenly observant folk songs. Get to the Point: The Focal Point, long considered the area’s most intimate listening room, continues a strong streak of booking up-close performances for rising songwriters alongside more traditional forms of folk music.
