Welcome to Suga in My Bowl radio‘s weekly feature, On The Bandstand, where we collect upcoming NYC area shows from current and past Suga’ guests. We’re online weekly and on the air on NYC’s WBAI-FM radio alternate Sunday nights from 11 PM -1 AM. Keep up with us via Facebook, the blog here, or our main website, or Twitter and we’ll keep track of the schedule for you.

We’re off this week, but if you missed our last show with saxophonist and flutist T.K. Blue, head over to our archives where you can hear that and 7 years of archived shows. Those of you following the news have likely heard of the station’s woes with the transmitter at the Empire State Building. If not, the summary is that the station’s in deep debt for seriously escalating rent. Anything you can pledge is needed now more than ever. And we have other listings for you.

Flutist and Saxophonist Jane Bunnett is at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Dizzy’s Club on August  14 with the Afro Cuban ensemble Maqueque.

Pianist Harold Mabern leads a trio at Smalls on August 16 and leads a quintet at Smoke for a release party for his To Love and Be Loved CD from August 25-27.

Drummer and percussionist Will Calhoun is at The Cutting Room on August 16 for a discussion of the upcoming Shade album with Living Cölour bandmates.

Bassist Alex Blake is at Kitano on August 18 with Lynnette Washington.

Poet and vocalist Jesscia Care Moore is at the Blue Note on August 21 with saxophonist James Brandon Lewis as a guest.

Harpist Brandee Younger is at the Jazz Standard on August 22.

Saxophonist and flutist T.K. Blue has a free outdoor concert as part of the Jazzmobile series at Grant’s Tomb on August 23rd.

Flutist Bobbi Humphrey is at Harlem’s Ginny’s Supper Club on August 25.

Trombonist/ seashellist Steve Turre is at Iridium with the Saturday Night Live band from August 26-27.

Drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and Social Science are at Harlem’s Marcus Garvey Park for the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival on August 26. Saxophonists “Sweet Poppa” Lou Donaldson and Tia Fuller lead ensembles at Tompkins Sq Park on August 27.

Master drummer Michael Carvin is at Harlem’s RAW Space on August 29 for a screening and Q&A of the documentary film No Excuses: Michael Carvin at the New York Jazz Film Festival. The film also screens on the 28th.

Saxophonist Gary Bartz is at Iridium with Sax Appeal from August 31 to September 2.

Bassist Alex Blake is at Medgar Evers College for a free outdoor concert on September 1 as part of the Jazzy Jazz series.

That’s all for now. Suga’ in My Bowl is scheduled to be back on WBAI‘s airwaves on Sunday August 20. We’ll also have another edition of “On the Bandstand” online next Sunday with a fresh set of listings.
