The Artichoke presents First Fridays with Lloyd Jones featuring Bobby Torres and Steve Kern. Artichoke Music is a creative space for people of all ages and backgrounds to gather, play and share traditional music from all cultures.  Artichoke Music is a non-profit music organization dedicated to building community through music by providing rewarding experiences for people to discover, learn and play music. For Friday November 1st, Lloyd has invited Bobby Torres to play congas along with pianist Steve Kern.

About Lloyd: Portland, Oregon roots artist Lloyd Jones has recorded six critically acclaimed albums, toured internationally, and racked up dozens of major awards and accolades. He’s a relentless road dog, hitting festival stages, Delbert’s annual Sandy Beaches Cruises (he’s been a regular on six winter cruises), and clubs all across the land to enthusiastic crowds who can’t get enough of his swampy blues, his backporch picking, his serious-as-anthrax funk, soul, roadhouse two-beats, and old-school rhythm and blues (back before the R&B tag was somehow appropriated for other musical purposes, apparently when we weren’t looking). Yet he may be the most invisible, best-kept roots/blues/Americana secret on the contemporary scene.

Arrivederci’s presents the Bobby Torres Ensemble. Bobby will be gathering other well known NW Artists to perform with the ensemble for this special evening. Arrivederci’s owner Steve Hanneman has a standing invitation to – set the dishes aside – and join in on the fun with his axe. Enjoy fantastic food and drink while listening to Bobby’s ensemble deliver generous helpings of live Latin jazz. If you can’t get a table reservation, join us at the open bar. There is always room for you! Jazz lovers, the seating, that surrounds the bandstand, gets booked out early so call for your reservation today (503) 659-1143. This is a family friendly venue for the entire evening. Music from 7:00-9:15pm.

In addition to the live music, enjoy a selection from Kate and Steve’s menu and wine list. Bobby recommends a glass of pinot noir with the Vegetarian Pizza (ask for it because it is not listed on the menu). Order it Bobby’s heart healthy way (extra veggie) on a fabulous home made gluten free crust and hold the cheese! For your starter, enjoy a small roasted beet and pear salad. Yum! Some vegetarian, GF, vegan options available upon request.
