SIMÓN WILLSON QUARTET (Friday 7pm)
4 DAYS UNTIL ENDECTO-FEST @thejazzgallery

Chilean-born bassist @iamsimonwillson kicks off Friday night with his quartet featuring @earth_neta (tenor sax), @mostlymidcontent (piano), and @angusmasonplaysthedrums (drums)

Willson released TWO albums on Endectomorph in 2025: ‘Bet: Live at Ornithology’ and ‘Feel Love.’ DownBeat gave Bet ☆☆☆☆ and called it “more than live—it’s vital.” Stereophile praised Willson as “a wicked soloist...His bass is the engine that powers this high-speed ensemble.”

An in-demand sideman who’s worked with artists like Dave Douglas and Ethan Iverson, among others, Willson brings the heat.

Friday 2/20 • 7:00 PM
Simón Willson Quartet
🎟️ Tickets: link in bio
$33.50 GA for all 3 sets | $45 reserved table

Full lineup: Simón Willson Quartet • Nick Joz • Dabin Ryu Trio • Prawntail • Ludovica Burtone’s Migration Tales • Steven Long PRNCX
