Adam Bronstein (ABtrio) and Ellen Pieroni joined Rockabill Greg In the Flamingo Lounge on August 20, 2025.
Ellen Pieroni, a soul jazz saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist from Buffalo, NY, has been a prominent figure in the local music scene for over a decade. Her band, Ellen Pieroni & the Encyclopedia of Soul (EoS), was recently featured on NPR's All Things Considered as a "jazz standout" in this year's Tiny Desk Contest. Their smooth, original music, inspired by artists like Grover Washington Jr. and King Curtis, is driven by Pieroni's captivating melodies and the band's thoughtful improvisations over deep grooves.
Buffalo, NY guitarist Adam Bronstein is known for his clever songwriting and playful improvisation, creating instrumental music that blends bebop, fusion, soul-jazz, and psychedelia. With three studio albums released in the past two years—Intention/Invention, ABtrio, and Jazz ≠ Jazz—as well as the live album Live at Black Dots, Bronstein has established himself as a prolific artist. While touring with Louis Prima Jr. & The Witnesses and Ellen Pieroni and The Encyclopedia of Soul, he also leads his trio, ABtrio, on frequent tours across the Northeast and Midwest.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
