EZ Kewl
This five-piece band calls its sound jazzy music — what you get when you put rocking rhythm and blues and jazz together. The resulting “blend” of cool music goes well with cocktails, any kind of beer, Northern California wine, a damn good cup of coffee, a spot of tea, a good woman, a bad man or just sitting back groovin’.” 6:30 p.m. Murphy’s Irish Pub. 935.0660.
