StLJN Saturday Video Showcase:
Even more livestreams from St. Louis



No real theme to this week's post, other than to gather some of the most recent livestream performances from St. Louis musicians and presenters, starting up above with a set by soul/jazz band Hip Grease, recorded back at the beginning of March and released this past week by Jazz St. Louis. The musicians are Ben Reece (saxophones), Adam Hucke (trumpet, flugelhorn), Dave Grelle (keyboards), Andy Coco (bass), and Joe Meyer (drums).

After the jump, you can see a set by the latest project from guitarist and singer Tommy Halloran. Skamasala features Halloran, trombonist John Covelli and bassist Max Kelly playing a mix of "Jamaican ska with American jazz." This performance was recorded at Focal Point and released online this past week.

Next up, it's a performance from singer Joe Mancuso, recorded on Friday, March 19 as part of the "Open Air" series at The Grandel.

That's followed by some traditional jazz from The Gaslight Squares, recorded on March 2 at The Sheldon, and a set from smooth jazz/R&B saxophonist Rhoda G, also recorded at The Grandel back on March 14.

Last but not least is the latest streaming performance from pianist Peter Martin, in which after a year's worth of solo performances online, Martin is joined by a guest, bassist Bob DeBoo.

You can see the rest of today's videos after the jump...
