Olympia Latin-American jazz progenitor Steven Luceno has added his bass talent to many a project over the last 40 years, including the beloved Ocho Pies as well as Obrador, Bert Wilson, John Stowell, Joe Baque and Dennis Hastings. Luceno is a bona fide master of his art form and will add a little heat to Hastings early show Tuesday at Saint Martin's University. Jazz and blues vocalist Hastings, who has played on the same bill with notable talent such as Bobby McFerrin, John Lee Hooker and The Marcels, will showcase his repertoire of tunes made popular from the 1940s to the 2000s at the 11 a.m. recital. Originally from Portland, Oregon, Hastings has been singing jazz and blues in the Northwest for more than 30 years. Performing with Hastings and Luceno will be Phil Lawson on guitar and Steven Bentley on drums. {WV}
