Dangerous Rhythms Featuring T.J. English

DANGEROUS RHYTHMS, featuring TJ ENGLISH, is the launch of a new book club and concert series. The Black Market Book Club invites authors to join Seattle musicians and book lovers as we work together to move the music off the page and onto the stage.

TJ English wrote what we consider the most thrilling and detailed book about the surprising and shocking connections between America's greatest art form and the Underworld. Icons such as Sinatra, Satchmo, Louis Prima, and Billie Holiday made it out of obscurity and into the limelight of hit records and classic Hollywood films the hard way and it's time to tell these stories that ultimately teach us to overcome and persevere over any obstacle. 

A list of notable jazz and soul musicians are participating with drummer Davy Nefos taking on the role of music director.

Beloved local book store owner and TJ English fan JB Johnson will be helping sponsor the night as well as moderating a lively discussion with the author.

Local songwriter and author Davin Michael Stedman dreamed up the club and concept after a rather incredible visit to JB's book store, BLMF at Pike Place Market.
