John Leslie “Wes” Montgomery was a jazz guitarist, widely considered one of the greatest to ever grace the stage or recording studio, influencing Pat Martino, George Benson and Kenny Burrell. Karl Latham includes Montgomery as one of the biggest influences on jazz guitarists that he tours with. Latham is a regular at venues such as Joe’s Pub, and is known for his versatility and easy grasp of a range of musical styles, from jazz and funk to avant-garde. Habitat is also proud to have Jordan Piper, a Jersey City-based pianist and composer, share the stage with Karl Latham. Jordan has performed at the Blue Note, opened for jazz vocalist Jane Monheit, and has been broadcast live on WBGO, the Newark-based jazz station, with the Pedro Rodriguez Quintet. Thanks to our Event Sponsors:  Kearny Federal Savings Bank and Unpainted Emporium Productions LLC.  See you there!
