That means that you aren't playing over the sounds of people talking or silverware clanking. As a musician, when you can have silence as part of the palate of color you have to work with, you can do so much more. The menu of musical styles ranges from Celtic to Latin to gospel to country to blues to bluegrass to every flavor of jazz. It means spontaneity to me, creation at the moment. My mission is to create a sense of synergy among local musicians.
Listeners come to be part of that experience.
People at Dizzy's will immediately notice an absence of booming TVs on ceiling brackets, alcohol, carpeting, chicken cacciatore. A few refreshments, like coffees and juices, and live performances in a space that is stylishly spare. Musicians play on a stage backed by aged brick walls. Tall windows face a street of warehouses and a trucking company. In fact, Dizzy's building itself was a trucking company garage.
