Tony Monaco, Fareed Haque & Rob Dicke
North Street Cabaret 610 North St., Madison, Wisconsin 53704
Prepare for an evening of first-class jazz with guitarist Fareed Haque, Hammond B-3 organ master Tony Monaco (pictured), and versatile drummer Rob Dicke. Best known for blending Indian and Pakistani influences with jazz and rock, Haque plays without borders, taking cues from both John McLaughlin and Ravi Shankar. Monaco’s mentor was none other than B-3 pioneer Jimmy Smith, and Dicke is a longtime veteran of Chicago’s revered jazz and rock scenes. Haque and Monaco have headlined many high-profile jazz festivals as a trio (with different drummers sitting in), and an intimate club gig like this one is sure to be special.
