Michael Wolff at Vitello’s

Influenced as much by Miles Davis as Herbie Hancock, pianist Michael Wolff joins his frequent collaborator Mike Clark behind the drums to celebrate the release of “Wolff & Clark Expedition,” joined by saxophonist Bob Sheppard and bassist Tony Dumas. Expect an equal facility with the fringes of hard bop as well as the sort of heavy-hitting funk Clark anchored in his days with the Headhunters. Vitello’s, 4349 Tujunga Ave., Studio City. Sat., 8 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. $20 https://www.vitellosjazz.com.
