GREGORY PORTER LIVE AT THE MESA ART CENTER THE # 1 VENUE FOR JAZZ IN ARIZONA

I had no idea what to expect as we drove the 45 minute drove to one of Arizona’s
premier live performance facilities in beautiful downtown Mesa, Arizona. The Mesa Arts Center hosts a gamut of live events and caters to its neighbors as well as to the public at large. Doc Jones, the Publisher of this magazine posed a question to me, “Do U know who Gregory Porter is?” Although I had heard smatterings of a couple of Mr. Porter’s latest album currently being regularly aired, I had no idea what to expect at the concert. Doc Jones, simply put, is a lover of music; all music. Given his extensive background in various music genres, one might become confused on listening to him master an Irish Jig, however, his first love is definitely Jazz.
