The drummer they call "Tain" spent his formative years with Branford Marsalis, and recent work suggests that the rhythm hound has as much respect for the great Elvin Jones as Marsalis has for Jones's old boss John Coltrane. Just as impressive, Watts's compositional skills now command equal attention. He's driving his quartet Blu 4 on Thu 17 and Fri 18, then blowing up with a star-studded big band Sat 19 and Sun 20.
