Today’s Top Tips for Live Music (Dec. 15, 2022)

Best bet: Jack DeJohnette with Jon Batiste & Matthew Garrison / Roy Wood Jr. @ Ulster Performing Arts Center, Kingston.

I absolutely love nights like this in and around Nippertown. Look at those listings for a Thursday night. Such high quality, and such variety. Pick your poison – you can’t go wrong. I’m going with a show on the southern tip of Nippertown, but what a show. DeJohnette/Batiste/Garrison…if that’s not worth an hour in your car, I don’t know what is. (8:00)
