Scott Amendola is a bay-area drummer and composer who has had long associations with artists like Charlie Hunter and Nels Cline. He performs with a trio including clarinetist Ben Goldberg and bassist Todd Sickafoose at Jazz Central on Thursday, November 7th. The group just released an album called “Here to There” consisting of music inspired by the bridge sections, i.e. the transition sections, of Thelonious Monk tunes. Amendola discusses all of this and his musical background with Jazz88’s Peter Solomon. Picture by Lenny Gonzalez. From L to R: Scott Amendola (seated), Todd Sickafoose, Ben Goldberg.
