Less widely known-of are his regular solo jazz sets in his home of New Orleans, where he shows off his classically trained abilities and earnest appreciation for the jazz greats alongside plenty of Bloom-y schmoozing with the audience. For his Wednesday night Jazz Lounge set, Bloom combined the intimate, jovial nature of his solo jazz sets with the collaborative spirit of Jam Cruise for what was easily among the most entertaining sets of the voyage so far. As shows continued on the two main stages, countless artists from elsewhere on the bill packed the lounge and the side stage areas to get a look at Benny’s performance—always a strong indicator that you’ve made a good choice in that time slot. With the help of a backing band comprised of bassist Garrett Sayers (The Motet), keyboardist Aron Magner (The Disco Biscuits, SPAGA), and drummer Matt Scarano (SPAGA), Bloom worked through material by jazz greats like Ornette Coleman, Nat King Cole, and more between his tangents of side-splitting banter. He also welcomed a number of those artists in the audience to join the band throughout the set, including Eric Krasno, Marcus King, Mike Dillon, and a veritable army of horns. These kinds of relaxed, intimate, light-hearted affairs are what Jam Cruise is all about, and the addition of Bloom’s one-of-a-kind sense of humor only served to solidify that status for this Jazz Lounge set. For Cruisers who missed out on all the schmaltz at Benny’s Jazz Lounge set, fear not—the real shenanigans are still to come at his Atrium set on Friday, aptly billed as “Eric Benny Bloom’s Really Tacky Show.” https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Gx0qCHq0i
