Bevan Manson

It's not often that a Grape regular is honored with a song in their honor. That happened tonight as Bevan Manson introduced a swingin' new tune named for a conversation he had here with one of our own, "Try this, Dave Levy." This was a special treat for all of us. And the great Ted Nash joined the band on stage to boot. The Grape is a very special place ❤️

The Barrelhouse Wailers@The Grape Ventura 07.13.24 - Jazz Weekly So, when was the last time you saw couples dancing at a jazz gig? Yeah, that’s the point! One of the best features at The Grape Ventura is the once a month appearance of The Barrelhouse Wailers, and they pack in the Lindy Hoppers for a swinging and sweaty night. Sure, you can also sit at the table...
