Jazz John (2021)

As struggling Jazz Musicians, Dez Delmonico and his trio knew they would have to start at the bottom. But, being booked to play the men's bathroom of Ricky's Jazz Club might have been one of the strangest back channels to fame the jazz world had ever seen. Munson, Ricky's greedy, exploitative owner, promised Dez's Band the world, but what he really offered was a dark, stinky crap-hole with leaky pipes for a stage. What should the guys do? Do they forget appearances, ignore the noble jazz traditions of Duke Ellington and Count Basie only to hold their noses and pull up a stall? ...What would Miles or Trane do? ...Well, one thing for sure...if an ambitious jazz band goes and makes a deal with the devil in the bathroom, they better make him wash his hands first.
