Bassist Tom Kennedy Joins Monk Rowe Trio at Kirkland Art Center as part of the vibrant music scene in Clinton.
The performance is scheduled for 7 to 9 p.m. at 9½ East Park Row in Clinton. The center’s official ticket page lists admission at $15.
The Rome Sentinel reports that this is the third year of Swing to Soul. The series brings a guest artist together with the trio in the arts center’s gallery setting.
A guest with wide musical experience
Kennedy’s career includes both acoustic and electric bass work. The Sentinel’s preview identifies performances and recording work with musicians including Dave Weckl, Mike Stern, Lee Ritenour and David Sanborn.

The center has not published a set list on the ticket page. Audience members should expect the advertised collaboration rather than a promised selection of particular songs.
