Weber State University Department of the Performing Arts and the Union Station Foundation present Jazz at the Station with Benjamin Jennings and Friends in the Grand Lobby of Ogden's Union Station. Jennings will be joined by Don Keipp, vibes; Zoltan Vegvari, keyboard; Clint Stanger; electric bass; Liz Wooley, vocalist; Ken Critchfield, upright bass; and others. Jennings is a familiar face in the local jazz scene as an upright bass player, drummer, vocalist and promoter. He is a member of several ensembles including BBC3 and The Liz Wooley Trio. He also hosted a regular jazz jam for two years, giving jazz players an opportunity to meet each other and make music. In addition to being a musician, Jennings also assists in producing the Jazz at the Station program and is often included in the 'and friends' option of other players such as Zoltan Vegvari, Viktor Uzur and Joe McQueen. He is actively working to promote live music in the area by providing current calendar listings to local publications and on-line sources. He also works to book local acts throughout northern Utah. He has most recently booked all the musicians who are performing in restaurants on 25th Street for the 25th Street Association. Jazz at the Station provides an all-ages venue for jazz fans and students. Well behaved children are welcome to attend as long as they do not disturb the performers or members of the audience.
