Why is the jazz/funk quartet The Bedbugs referred to as such? Is it because after listening to their Latin-music-soaked grooves, well be wiggling our toes in a syncopated pattern even when were lying in bed? Were not too sure, though well be front and center when local cats Chris Benavidez (saxophone), Jason Brown (guitar), Steve Miner (bass), and Jessie Nelson (drums) blow up The Lost Leaf while playing tunes such as John Scofields Chank, Charlie Hunters Dance of the Jazz Fascists, and Hang up Your Hang Ups by Herbie Hancock.
