Starting Feb. 7, the Gaslamp Restaurant & Bar will feature world-class jazz every Thursday with The Frank Potenza Trio.
Jazz guitar virtuoso Frank Potenza is setting up a Thursday night residency at the Gaslamp.

When he’s not touring or recording with the biggest names in jazz, the Joe Pass protégé is the chair of the USC Thornton Studio/Jazz Guitar Department.
