Mike Clark and his Prescription Trio visit Tambaleo on the Fourth of July to set off some grooved-out musical fireworks. Clark, who gained notoriety playing drums for Herbie Hancock's Headhunters, is one of the preeminent jazz drummers in the world, and his trio features two virtuoso musicians: Robert Walter (of Robert Walter's 20th Congress) on keys and Skerik (of more bands than you can shake a stick at, including Garage a Trois and Skerik's Syncopated Taint Septet) on saxophone.
