Don’t miss The LaRue Nickelson Trio as they perform original tunes written by LaRue and some choice standards that will feature improvisational interplay between the three instruments, which is a unique one-time experience. No tune is ever played the same way twice!
LaRue Nickelson will be on guitar, Ian Goodman on drums, and Doug Matthews on bass. Ian and Doug are two of the most sought-after improvisers in central Florida. When the three of them get together, they love to create something new for the listener.
