MEET MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST, STEVEN GALLOWAY!

This Greenwood, SC based, smooth jazz saxophonist has an impeccable degree — specifically a music degree from Lander University where he studied under Columbia jazz mainstay Robert A. Gardiner, whom he’ll still sit in with on occasion when passing through Columbia. For his music performance degree, Galloway said Gardiner would have him transcribe solos from the likes of Miles Davis and other jazz greats. However, Steven enjoys listening to a variety of music, from Grover Washington Jr., to Stevie Wonder and even Drake. Among his musical influences are, Charlie Parker, Hank Mobley, Thelonious Monk, Roberta Flack, Jim Snidero, Jerry Bergonzi, to name a few.

In addition to being a gifted saxophonist, Steven Galloway is also a jazz and classically trained pianist, so his supple licks are intricately constructed without being out there, and he drops in familiar covers of everyone from Michael Jackson to Patti LaBelle at his sold out shows. 

The soft-spoken Galloway considers himself to be an introvert, but he enjoys performing and exudes an amazing energy and a soul clenching performance that is unmatched. Stay tuned for more from Steven Galloway.

Some of the best times we have at M. Judson come from our collaborations with Mission Grape and Camilla Kitchen, where we let the food and wine do the storytelling. One afternoon amongst the bottles, Chef Teryi got to talking about her not-so-distant tradition of Runaway Fridays, where a person might sneak off for a midday margarita and be all the better for it. And we figured we can do better than that.

So join us for our favorite getaway in The Gallery at M.Judson: Runaway Friday Wine Lunch. We’ll pair three wines from the same producer with three small plates from Camilla Kitchen, get some delicious education from Danny Baker and Chef Teryi, as well as a sweet little treat to go.

Wines will be for sale, tickets will be limited!
