John Kizilarmut Trio, at the Green Lady Lounge

When John Kizilarmut moved to Kansas City last year, he was the drummer with the name you couldn’t pronounce (it’s ki-ZIL-ar-moot). But with a touch both light and nimble, keeping perfect time marked by an easy elegance, he quickly established himself as one of the city’s most in-demand jazz drummers. Kizilarmut brings that same approach to the vibraphone, and that’s the role he takes with his own trio Thursday night at the Green Lady Lounge. Joined by Ken Lovern on Hammond B-3 organ and Kevin Frazee as this night’s drummer, Kizilarmut mixes standards with his own eclectic original compositions. It’s rare to see vibraphone, organ and drums working together; here are three masters who make it look easy.
