FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Annual Musikmesse Warm Up Party in Jazzkeller Frankfurt Hosted By Jon Hammond Band

Frankfurt -- Jon Hammond and Band will be hosting the annual Musikmesse Warm Up Party held every year on the night before the 2010 Musikmesse Trade Fair Begins - Tuesday March 23rd in Jazzkeller Frankfurt Kleine Bockenheimerstr. 18a / 60323 Frankfurt am Main / Tel. 069 28 85 37
This will be Jon's 24th consecutive year playing the Musikmesse. Jon is pleased to announce that rejoining his band this year will be the Hungarian Tenor Sax Star TONY LAKATOS from Budapest who is a lifetime member of the HR Radio Big Band

Also rejoining Jon and Tony will be Giovanni Gulino drums and Joe Berger aka 'The Berger-meister' guitar
Some of Jon's expected guests will be both the Director of Musikmesse Wolfgang Luecke and Joe Lamond President CEO of NAMM, both of whom are excellent drummers and special Accordion Friends including Roberto Lucanero, Holda Paoletti-Kampl, Marco Galeazzi, Nello Gabrielloni, Michael Maier-Falkenstein from Hammond Deutschland, Pigini Brothers, Heinz Aumüller, friends from all over the world gathering in the special atmosphere of Jazzkeller Frankfurt which is the oldest jazz club in Germany, a hundreds year old 'keller' below the ground near the Alte Oper in center of Frankfurt.

Jon says, "It is a great way to kick off the Musikmesse every year, we always look forward to this casual and fun evening after the stands are built, it's great to unwind with some swinging funky jazz music and beverages served by the friendly team at this special club Jazzkeller. This Musikmesse event and the Jazzkeller are both very close to my heart personally, I had my first successful European shows here in the Jazzkeller after I moved to Germany for 5 years because of so many special friends I have through our years attending Musikmesse. The first Musikmesse Warm Up Party we did was sponsored by Philip Morris Cigarettes and RTL Plus TV Show "Hessen Report". Nowadays it is not permitted to smoke cigarettes inside the club, but we are thankful for all of the support we have received and now we gather with our friends in clean air which is really nice, although Eugen Hahn owner of Jazzkeller had installed one of the best industrial air cleaners of any club I have played in! A good time for all, we are looking forward to seeing all our friends there again soon and every day in Halle 3.1 where all the best accordions in the world and players will be!" *special thanks Accordions World Wide Team
