Join West End Neighborhood Library for a celebration of West End's historic jazz club, One Step Down.
Come hear about it from folks who were there! In this event, local historian Bertrand Uberall and Bassist/Band Leader David Jernigan will discuss this storied venue's legacy with other DC musicians who performed at the One Step Down. Following the discussion, Mr. Jernigan's quartet will perform repertoire from their time in the One Step Down's house band.
Closed in 2001, One Step Down was a hotspot for both local and international Jazz in Washington DC. During its heyday, attendees could hear jazz luminaries such as Freddie Hubbard, Roy Haynes, and DC's own Shirley Horn in addition to local luminaries such as keyboardist Lawrence Wheatly.
