Description
At 23, saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Jamaal Sawyer plays with a recognized maturity that belies his age. A newcomer to the New York jazz scene, Jamaal has performed with recognized heavyweights Bobby Watson and Barry Harris as well as unsung giants David Schnitter, Bill Saxton, and Valery Ponomarev. Jamaal began his musical education in Kansas City, where he spent three years under the tutelage of Mr. Watson at the University of Missouri. In 2003, he decided to make the move east to New York. There he completed his education, studying with a who's who of the jazz world including Gary Bartz, Greg Osby, and Greg Tardy. Having cut his teeth on the New York scene, Jamaal has performed in a variety of locales in NYC including Sweet Rhythm, Crash Mansion, the Garage, S.O.B.s and the Blue Note.

Garage Restaurant
The building was established in the 1920's as an automobile garage. The Garage logo is derived from the original mosaic embedded in the front of the building. In the 1940's and 50's, the space was called The Nut Club, a cabaret that was a forerunner of the comedy clubs of today, with entertainers such as Jackie Gleason performing on stage. From 1969 to the early 1990's the Circle Repertory Company, an off-Broadway theater troupe, used the space as their theater (featuring early performances by actors Danny Aiello, Alec Baldwin, William Hurt and Demi Moore). On June 14, 1995, Garage opened to rave reviews.Links
