SANDY BOTTOM STAGE
11:00AM - 3:00PM STEPHEN CHAPLIN QUARTET - At 16, Chaplin has an intuitive feel for classic jazz. He has sharp enough chops on piano to be taken seriously, and original pieces Chaplin wrote for the quartet that bears his name are smart beyond the composer's years. None of the quartet members is out of high school, and the bass player, Gregory Chaplin, Stephen's brother, is just 13 years old. But there is definitely something brewing among the Chaplins, drummer Peter Moffett and sax player Andrew Fraine, who comprise the Stephen Chaplin Quartet. [ band website ]
