Outside the Spotlight
Outside The Spotlight is a series of jazz and improvised music events in Lexington, KY. We give a home to artists making music that doesn't fit with commercial sensibilities and build an environment where artists and audience can interact more directly.
We want to expand the the availability of this music to anyone who is interested. Performances are at smaller venues and are generally donation / pay-what-you-want.

OTS 232 - CC3, The Chris Comer Trio
January 24, 2025
7pm, All Ages
21c Museum Hotel Lexington
The CC3 is The Chris Comer Trio - Chris Comer on Fender Rhodes Electric Piano, Michael Ronstadt on Cello, and Bart Foster on Drums.The CC3 perform original compositions and far flung improvisations. From Cincinnati, Ohio, Chris Comer, jazz pianist and composer, called the first CC3 recording session while all the gigs were cancelled during COVID lockdowns. Assembling the most creative musicians Chris knew, Ronstadt and Foster, they began working on original compositions and exploratory improvisations that were neither jazz nor rock but a mash up of everything the three musicians did best.For “Outside The Spotlight” on January 24 the CC3 intend to perform select original compositions, some of which are brand new, and debut a new set of improvised music called MUSIC FOR SPACESHIPS.Please join us downtown at 21c Museum Hotel for a far out night of wintertime jazz, and bring a friend!Admission is free and open to all. Donations are appreciated, and allow us continue presenting shows. See you there!
