The Palladium’s new season kicked off with a syncopated dose of Brazilian jazz, courtesy of La Lucha and a great Nate Najar quartet featuring John Lamb, Jeff Rupert and the great D.C. drummer, Chuck Redd.

The show celebrated the 50th anniversary of Jazz Samba– the Grammy winning album by Charlie Byrd and Stan Getz.
