Johnny Vidacovich Trio Ft. Brian Haas & Alex Massa

About this event

Drum legend Johnny Vidacovich continues his legendary residency at the Maple Leaf bar! This weeks edition includes Brian Haas & Alex Massa.

Along with his mastery of drums, Johnny captures the pulse of his surroundings and translates those emotions into one of his signature poems, which have become equally as expressive as his music, and more frequently, Johnny’s words and voice are recorded with other artists. It would be a disappointment if his own projects didn’t include a track with vocals. Johnny has a lot to say and a lot to play.
