2008 SUMMER JAZZ SERIES
Spring is here and summer's right around the corner, and that means jazz on the patio at
Seasons Rotisserie & Grill.  Saturdays offer performances from some of the area's best jazz bands, while Sundays present a unique opportunity for the next generation of jazz musicians a chance to play play in front of an audience and learn from their mentors and teachers.
 
All shows for both nights begin at 7:30 pm and take place on our covered roof-top patio.
All shows take place regardless of weather, so please plan accordingly as temperatures can decrease rapidly when the sun sets, especially earlier in the season.
We do not take general reservations for our jazz events.  On Saturdays we highly recommend arriving as early as 6:30 pm for choice seating on the patio.
There is never a cover charge at Seasons.
 
Below you may read more details about our Saturday Night Jazz Series as well as our
Sunday Night Jazz Jams.
 
Please feel free to call us at 766-5100 if you have any questions.
We look forward to seeing you this summer!

2008 SUNDAY NIGHT JAZZ JAMS
Join us for an intimate and casual evening of live jazz every Sunday night starting in May.  Seasons hosts the Sunday Night Jazz Jam every summer in partnership with the New Mexico Jazz Workshop.  These exciting evenings of jazz revolve around a guest "host band" that takes the stage at 7:30 pm and performs a set on their own.  "Jammers" and guest musicians are then encouraged to sign up to play standards and classics with the
"host band."  The Sunday Night Jazz Jams are a great venue for up-and-coming jazz musicians, students and casual perfomers desiring an opportunity to play with and learn from Albuquerque's elite. 
Plus it's BURGER NIGHT every Sunday night on our roof-top patio.
We offer an ever changing selection of eclectic and standard burgers, from Ahi Tuna Burgers to Italian Sausage Burgers to our Famous Half Pound Angus Burger all at a price sure to make your weary weekend wallet a bit happier.
