For the past 25 years, Dazzle has melded community and culture with intimate music and arts experiences. A chef-driven menu, specialty cocktails, and a finely crafted wine menu round out the evening. We celebrate and commemorate everyday life in an inclusive space where Denver audiences are able to hear some of the best jazz and improvised music from around the world. In June of 2017, Dazzle left its tenured home on 9th and Lincoln and moved to its new home, downtown between the Denver Performing Arts Complex and the 16th Street Mall, the historic Baur’s Building. In early 2023, Dazzle installs jazz at the Denver Performing Arts Complex by moving into 1080 14th Street.

Join us for the release and performance of "Good Trouble" by the KWS Legacy Band

November 27th at 6:00PM
Tickets available at DazzleDenver.com

Good Trouble stands as a profoundly moving testament to the late, legendary bassist Ken Walker—who passed away in February 2026 at age 69. This commemorative release encapsulates more than two decades of musical cohesion, deep swing, and post-bop brilliance from Colorado’s definitive jazz ensemble.

The title track, “Good Trouble”—an original by Jenkins—mirrors the ethos celebrated at Ken’s recent memorial: an unwavering dedication to rhythmic discipline, musical honesty, and pure collective joy. Alongside his longtime bandmates—Peter Sommer (sax), Brad Goode (trumpet), Dave Corbus (guitar), Jeff Jenkins (piano), and Paul Romaine (drums)—, the album delivers a rich tapestry of hard-swinging grooves and intricate original arrangements. Guided by Walker’s foundational pocket and deep, soulful swing, this recording is a timeless monument to a giant of the upright bass whose groove permanently shaped the soul of Colorado jazz.

feat. Alan Pasqua, Bob Mintzer, Darek Oles

February 11, 2027 at 6:00PM & 8:30PM
Tickets available at DazzleDenver.com

The three gentlemen who will be joining me onstage at Dazzle Denver are musical maestros as well as longtime friends. Bob Mintzer and I first met in 1969 at the Interlochen Arts Academy, while Alan Pasqua and I met two years later on the campus of Indiana University. Darek and I became acquainted at the California Institute of the Arts in the early 1990s, and we have been playing in trio with Alan for many years. We go back a long ways. We are four fellows well met. I don’t think I’ve played with a more swinging band than this one.
