Tremoloco Roots Music Night

We continue our Roots Music series yet again featuring two amazing guitarist Bob Robles and Jeff Ross as well as regulars Johnny "Vatos" and Jim Shirey

Our special Guest this Month: Mark "Pocket" Goldberg band along with surprise guests

His latest recording is simply outstanding so I'm putting my fellow bass player/songwriter on our showcase spot as it's so well deserved. His band includes some of my favorite players in L.A. including Debra Dobkin whom among many credits was in the earliest version of Tremoloco (Tremoloca?) she's currently with Richard Thompson.
We plan on some surprise guests and having Mark and Debra play with us (they know the songs).

So once again please make reservations (it's so much easier than standing around waiting for a table) and we really look forward to another evening of great music.

Mark “Pocket” Goldberg’s new cd “Off The Alleyway” showcases his Americana songwriting at its natural best. Featuring twelve all-original tunes artfully co-produced with band mates Debra Dobkin (Bonnie Raitt & Richard Thompson) and Nick Kirgo (Les McCann & Nels Cline) Off The Alleyway” moves along smoothly through influences that echo the roots of Blues, Folk, Soul and Good Ole Rock ‘n’ Roll featuring Pocket’s unique vocals (which have been described as Howlin’ Wolf & Johnny Cash meet Randy Newman & Leonard Cohen at the Annual Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong Bar-B-Que Picnic), but you’ll have to listen for yourself because his voice is truly his own.
For decades now, Mark “Pocket” Goldberg has been a respected “Roots” Bass player (upright & electric) who has had the honor of making music with some of the most talented artists of his day including: Mick Fleetwood’s Blue Whale (with Joe Walsh & John Mayall) Floyd Dixon (with Roscoe Gordon & Charles Brown) Willie Dixon (with Luther Tucker & Cash McCall) Finis Tasby (with John Lee Hooker & Lowell Fulsom) Barry Goldberg (with Mick Taylor & Terry Reid) Buddy Guy & Junior Wells (with Al Duncan) Canned Heat (with Harvey Mandell & Junior Watson) Screamin’ Jay Hawkins (with Mike Keneally & Bo Diddley, Jr.) Joey Bonamassa (with Stephen Stills & Earl King), James Intveld (with Jay Dee Maness & Eddie Perez) Rosie Flores (with Greg Leisz & Skip Edwards)
