The Joshua Redman Quartet—pianist Aaron Goldberg, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Gregory Hutchinson—leads a six-night, twelve-show residency at the Blue Note in New York City all this week, culminating with early and late sets through the weekend, tonight, Saturday, and Sunday.

The quartet is currently touring behind Come What May, its first album in nearly two decades, released just last week on Nonesuch Records. The Times of London gives the album four stars, writing that “nothing beats the cool confidence of a band who have spent years on the road. It also helps that the seven Redman tunes here are so good ... Four men playing as one.”
