Marcus Shelby Trio And Guests Live at the Red Poppy

July 10, 2008

On June 20, 2008, the Red Poppy Art House celebrated Marcus Shelby’s original trio by playing host to a reunion performance with Marcus on Bass, Matt Clark on piano, and Jaz Sawyer on drums. Joining them was the powerhouse tenor saxist Howard Wiley along with special guest Geechi Taylor on Trumpet. Here’s a few photos and a short video clip that’ll give you a small taste of what turned out to be a crazy hot and steamy summer night of killin’ live jazz in the Mission.
