Ian Hughes Quintet

Ian Hughes & the Half Giraffe Quintet Live at Butter Notes Café Join us at Butter Notes Café for an evening of live jazz with guitarist Ian Hughes and the Half Giraffe Quintet. A Seattle native, Ian Hughes began playing guitar as a teenager inspired by the city’s grunge scene. Although he was introduced to jazz through his school jazz band, his interests initially centered on classic rock and progressive music. A growing appreciation for the harmonic writing of artists like Jeff Buckley and Pink Floyd eventually led him back to jazz, where he went on to study the genre in college. The Half Giraffe Quintet brings together modern jazz, original compositions, and improvisation in an intimate listening-room setting. Saturday, July 25 Doors: 7:30 PM Music: 8:00 PM Butter Notes Café 902 N Broadway, Unit B Everett, WA 98201 Tickets $15 Advance $20 at the Door All ages welcome.
