Live Jazz at 6th Street Live
Drummer Dave Karnes has played in rock bands since his teens (most recently as a member of Sunward), but the Berklee College of Music graduate's first love is jazz. He co-led the quartet Dave and Daver with saxophonist Dave Williams, recording a fine CD of Williams compositions, Jazz Lines, before folding the tent. Karnes has toured the world as musical director for the interactive musical Tony and Tina's Wedding, but until January 2007, his musical home was at Tad Gaither's Black Dog Tavern, where he was the regular drummer on the long-running Sunday-night jam sessions hosted by Michael Pellecchia, taking over the gig when the saxophonist left town. The tradition continues at Brian Forella's 6th Street Live, where every Sunday night, Karnes takes the stage with a crew of regulars that includes vibraphonist Joey Carter, bassist Drew Phelps, and guitarist Paul Metzger, along with sit-ins and surprise guests. Behind the traps, Karnes can float like Roy Haynes or sting like Elvin Jones, and he's got a big book of standards that encompasses ballads, blues, bebop, and '60s Milesian modality. Dig it. 2756 W. 6th Street, Fort Worth, TX 76107 817.877.0666
