Rick Whitehead, guitarist, served as a featured soloist for perhaps the finest service band in the country, The Airmen Of Note, where he backed everyone from Frank Sinatra Jr., Joe Williams, Sarah Vaughn to Roy Clark. He now leads one of DC's most exciting jazz combos.

Barry Hart is everybody's favorite drummer. A technical master, he is as much fun to watch as he is to listen to. His solid work has landed him gigs with, just to name a few: The Tommy Dorsey Band, The Ink Spots, Bob Hope, Cab Calloway, O.C. Smith, Lou Rawls, The Drifters and Little Anthony and the Imperials.

Steve Wolf, bass, has toured internationally with many of the region's finest bands, and has backed an array of national artists including: Chuck Berry, The Coasters, Bo Diddly, Doctor John and Springsteen sax man Clarence Clemons. He leads the popular jazz quartet, Swing Speak, and he remains an in-demand sideman.

Directions: From the beltway take beltway exit 3A (Indian Head Highway, Route 210 South). Travel about 10 miles to Bryan Point Road. Look for the sign/exit on your right (next right after Farmington Road). Take this exit/service road off Indian Head Highway; turn left at first stop sign and right at second stop sign onto Bryan Point Road. Follow CONCERT signs to 2001 Bryan Point Road. After driving through a residential area, you'll be driving on a hilly road through the woods, keep going and it will be on the right.
