While we wait for the judgment of the GROUNDHOG on Sunday, we have great music in Pittsburgh to enjoy, no matter the weather,

The weather changes, and so, too, do long-established bands, venues and more. On the Scene, we visit with Drummer Dave King, cofounder of the Bad Plus, visiting City Winery February 6. We talk about the band as a trio that included pianist Ethan Iverson for 18 years, then, our friend Orrin Evans - and now, a pianoless quartet.

We also hear about animportant night at the Village Vanguard in New York - when proprietress Lorraine Gordon gave the Bad Plus a night that turned into much more.

We also visit with guitarist John Shannon about his music and about what’s up at Pittsburgh’s nightly jazz place - Con Alma.

The Scene - Thursday at 6pm, Sunday at 5pm, Friday and Saturday at noon on WZUM.
