Jazz Beat: Eddie Moore hosts the Monday Jam, at the Blue Room

Mondays are different at the Blue Room. After a set by the night’s host, a jam session takes the stage. Then you might find multiple generations of KC jazz veterans mixing with new names that you realize you’ll see again. Monday, keyboardist Eddie Moore hosts. Whether he’s performing his own densely rich compositions or playing piano behind the vocal ensemble Book of Gaia, Moore’s modern and sophisticated music stands out. He’s joined by his group the Outer Circle with guitarist Adam Schlozman, bassist DeAndre Manning and drummer Pat Adams. They’re the perfect complement for a jam.
