C.O. Jones

According to local folklore, the last time C.O. Jones performed at Mohawk Place, the place was so packed that the bar ran out of beer and the floor almost collapsed. Thankfully, the room has been enlarged to accommodate such an event. The mastermind of Dave Schulz (pictured), C.O. Jones is the ultimate dance funk party band. Uitilizing influences such as Parliament/Funkadelic and the late Rick James, the band brings together some of Buffalo’s most talented and varied players. Although Schulz has been living in Los Angeles for the past five years working as a session musician, he recently began flying the C.O. Jones banner again, working on new material and playing the occasional show when he’s in town. Sunday (Sept. 3) brings a rare sighting at Mohawk Place. Opening the show is Que Sera at 9pm.
