JEFF FULLER

Mid-winter Jazz ~ 1/23/2026!

     Hi everyone… Before the big storm hits I wanted to get this newsletter out to you… Some very exciting gigs are coming up as we transition from January to February. Here are some of the places I’ll be playing in the next few weeks.

     On Friday, January 30th, at 7:00 pm, come on out to Best Video Film & Cultural Center, 1842 Whitney Ave., Hamden, for the first of two shows with my new All-Star jazz group (under the old name) Jeff Fuller & Friends, with Naomi Wharry (trb/voc), Nigel Regan (alto sax), Ryan Sands (drs), and Darren Litzie (pno.)  $20 cover.

     And hopefully you’ll be in the mood to catch the same All-Star group again on Sunday, February 1st from 4 – 5:30 pm at the Yale Jazz Festival in the E-Room of the Afro-American Cultural Center, 211 Park Street, New Haven. This event is free and open to the public, sponsored by the good folks at the Yale Undergraduate Jazz Collective.

     I’ve got two appearances coming up at Encore by Goodfellas, 702 State Street, New Haven. Tonight, Friday, January 23rd from 6:30 – 9:30 pm, I’ll be with saxophonist Zack Hann’s quartet, featuring guitarist Brian Suto and drummer Matt Rousseau. On Saturday, January 31st, I’ll be joining the fine young saxophonist, Wes Lewis and his quartet (with Ben Bilello on drums).  Come on up to the mezzanine to join us.

     On Thursday, February 5th from 7 – 9 pm, I’ll be playing with the Mark Kaplan Jazz Quartet at Golf Cove, 336 State Street, North Haven. Mark, the very talented tenor sax player, has assembled a fine group: Martin Carter on piano, John Rispoli on drums.  We’ll be sure to give those indoor golfers something to tee off on!  Open to public, no cover.

     On Friday, February 6th, I’ll be with my (older…) brutha, guitarist Joe Carter, for some great Brazilian tunes at Bangkok Room, 76 Main Street, Ansonia, from 6 – 9 pm.   This is a very fun hang out – great food & drink!

     On Mondays, from 7 – 8:30 pm, I play with Pat Todd’s Tuxedo Junction ~ a big band with a swingin’ repertoire ~ at the Guilford VFW Hall, 104 Mill Road, Guilford, CT.  Free and open to the public — great ambiance, great bar, great dancing.

   Hope you all survive this weekend  — first of all — and second, that we chance to meet soon at one of these nice gigs!
