The John Troy Group delivers a vibrant bouquet of music that traverses electrically throughout eras and styles — from classic, swingin’ organ-driven grooves and tight modern jazz works to colorful explorations of Neo-soul, Lofi, Indie Rock, hip-hop, all inspirations that are evident in John’s original compositions. The band features a formidable phalanx of musicians hailing from Rochester & Buffalo, NY, and while each performance of the John Troy Group strives to be novel & inventive, their progressive sounds are clearly rooted in soul, bop and beauty.
Please join us for a full-spectrum musical journey, unified by artistry, energy, and the unmistakable spirit of twin city talent.

Tuesdays with Morrie is the autobiographical story of Mitch Albom, an accomplished journalist driven solely by his career, and Morrie Schwartz, his former college professor. Sixteen years after graduation, Mitch happens to catch Morrie’s appearance on a television news program and learns that his old professor is battling Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Mitch is reunited with Morrie, and what starts as a simple visit turns into a weekly pilgrimage and a last class in the meaning of life.
