Christopher Brown - drums

Gina Saputo - vocals

Randy Porter - piano

Christian Ramirez - bass

John Nastos - sax

Drummer and bandleader Christopher Brown has been both a force and permanent fixture on the Portland Jazz scene ever since his return home in 2012—which was preceded by 13 years in the NYC area, as well as four years in the Marine Corps. And while the formation of his normal quartet has been the primary vehicle that his sound and brand have been built upon since his return, his reputation has also been predicated upon being one of Portland's first-call drummers for both local and national artists when they pass through town. In the case of this performance, it will combine both the power and prestige of the Grammy nominated local pianist Randy Porter with the same power and prestige of Gina Saputo, who's one of the finest Jazz vocalist here in the NW and beyond. And helping to round out the group will be the young bassist Christian Ramirez, whose resume has already gotten off to a very impressive start. So be sure to get your ticket for this special one-time show, as this masterclass of a performance by Gina and company will take you on an emotional roller coaster that you'll never forget!

Performing music by icons of early jazz such as Jelly Roll Morton, Duke Ellington, Clarence Williams, and Bix Beiderbecke, as well as lesser known musical stylists, territory bands, and innovators such as Bennie Moten, Alex Hill, and Jabbo Smith, the Bridgetown Sextet has cemented its reputation as a favorite among both listening audiences and dancers in the Pacific Northwest. The band was founded in 2008 by Andrew Oliver and Scott Kennedy and has seen various personnel changes over the years as band members have come and gone from the Portland area. Now a seven-piece band with the recent additions of Sam Dechenne on trumpet and Tyson Stubelek on drums, as well as Andrew’s return from London in 2020, the Sextet continues to refine its visceral, joyful, and authentic approach to traditional jazz, stomp, and swing. The band has performed at the Portland Jazz Festival, Portland Lindy Exchange, Camp Jitterbug in Seattle, the Seaside Jazz Festival, traditional jazz socities around the Northwest, and all the major Portland area clubs past and present including the Jack London Revue, the 1905, Jimmy Mak’s, the Blue Monk, Secret Society and Duff’s Garage.
