Outpost Performance Space 2025 Spring Season Begins!
Outpost’s Spring 2025 season opens with New Mexico’s own, renowned tenor saxophonist Doug Lawrence y sus Nuevos Mexicanos, his esteemed New Mexico group featuring Steve Figueroa, piano and organ; Paul Gonzales, trumpet; Milo Jaramillo, bass; Ricky Carrido, congas; and David Flores, drums. The band, last heard at the Route 66 Summerfest in 2023, has appeared several times at Outpost, and they return to perform their signature mix of jazz music with a Latin flavor and an emphasis on groove, blues and melodies. Their goal is for audiences to have a great time and to feel good listening to the music. Lawrence notes that the music is “sure to have the audience dancing in their seats! I guarantee they will be leaving our performance with a smile on their face and a song in their heart!" Born in Louisiana and raised in New Mexico, Doug Lawrence spent over 25 years making a name for himself in New York City. He has performed and recorded with iconic artists including Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Sarah Vaughan, Tony Bennett, Aretha Franklin, Dizzy Gillespie, Celia Cruz, Benny Goodman, Stevie Wonder and many others and for the last 20+ years, he has been the featured tenor saxophone soloist with the multi-Grammy® award-winning Legendary Count Basie Orchestra. He continues to perform and record with many of todays’ leading artists including Dee Dee Bridgewater, George Cables, Peter Bernstein, Lady Gaga and others.
