Based out of sunny San Diego, Gypsy Sally is a three piece blues band that brings the old school feel to the new age from blues, to rock with the occasional Bossa and Latin twist. Front man Kyler Jakubowski has utilized his North Carolina roots and over the years has created a very unique blues sound not heard since the 50’s, Austin Wagner links the rhythm and melody with his smooth motown influenced James Jameson style, and Martin Quezada holds the beat on drums with his Caribbean swing, all of which when brought together creates what is now known as the one and only Gypsy Sally. To date, Gypsy Sally has recorded one album, "How Long," recorded live in the studio with Alan Sanderson. Gypsy Sally is named after a bar in the song "Tecumseh Valley" by Townes Van Zandt. Apart from Van Zandt, the band is influenced by classic blues artists like B.B. King, John Lee Hooker, and Peter Green. However, in addition to the blues, the band also draws influence from the vocals of Sam Cooke, and the rock guitar of Rory Gallagher.

From the moment Mercedes Moore takes the stage you can’t look away. She welcomes you to the show, thanks you for coming, and the band rips into its opening chords. As dancers rush to the floor, the smile on Mercedes’ face grows more radiant; you’re in her world and nothing else matters. You might think she was destined to do this, but you’d be wrong. Moore grew up doubting her skills, "I didn’t think that I could sing." She says. “I didn’t think it was possible.” That was then, this is now. Today, fronting her own band, Mercedes works hard to be more than a voice. She wants fans to feel the music, the way she feels the music. Watching faces in the crowd on this night, as Mercedes swings through an extensive playlist of ballads, blues, and soul shakers, it’s obvious she has them right where she wants them. Yet, the most remarkable aspect of this story, the woman has only been singing professionally for a little more than eight years. Eight years. Let there be no doubt, Mercedes Moore is making the most of her time. As a three-time San Diego Music Award nominee, Moore performs regularly with some of Southern California’s premier musicians. The list is endless–Taryn Donath, John Simons, Mark Campbell, Marc Ramos, Tracy Wiebeck, Kurt Kalker, Matt Taylor, Steve Wilcox, Scot Smart, Missy Andersen, Sharifah Muhammad, and Laura Chavez–to name but a few. When asked, Moore is straightforward about the multitude of players. “It just makes you a better singer.” She smiles. “And different people have different strengths. Plus, I want to learn, so I can be better.” It appears to be working. Mercedes Moore is currently juggling four major projects and her music can range from blues, gospel, and R&B to a boatload of classic rock and blue-eyed soul. This does not take into consideration the assortment of duo and trio sets, the occasional jazz venture, and an array of impromptu performances with local and visiting artists. …. read the rest at https://sandiegotroubadour.com/12256/ Mercedes Moore Band on Facebook / Instagram See More Events www.booksandrecrodsbar.com www.bardicmanagement.com/events

About Aimee Jacobs While many classes beneath the arts umbrella caught the mind of Aimee Jacobs, it was melody and song that held her heart. At seven years old, Aimee felt compelled to become a singer, and explained this to her parents. When told it would take hard work, she replied, “I know.” She patiently learned piano for the next five years until she reached a mature enough age to start voice lessons. At age twelve, Aimee was able to begin voice lessons — although she barely got any notes out during the first two sessions. She sensed something inherently vulnerable about the craft, knowing that nobody can really hide how they’re feeling when singing for an audience. Aimee embraced the challenge, and embraced herself as a vessel of expression. In alignment with purpose, she began her journey towards meaning, integrity, and connection with something larger than herself. By 2014, not only did Aimee remain diligent with her lessons, she majored in Opera Performance — studying both classical voice as well as classical piano. She also toured with Burning of Rome, playing music on the stage with acts such as Bad Religion, Offspring, Cage the Elephant, The Psychedelic Furs, The Dirty Heads, and Moving Units. Juggling so many responsibilities all at once, Aimee discovered that apart from performance itself, the community surrounding music was fire to her soul. Over the course of shows — and years of teaching students both piano and voice — Aimee continually validated a revelation that music is the history of feelings. She believes that not even words can achieve the same level of communication or impact. To this end, she found much fulfillment in coaching and teaching. What greater gift can be given to a person than a way of channeling their spirit and expressing parts of themselves for which they have no words? For her own endeavors of expression, Aimee recorded her first album of folk pop songs by the age of sixteen. She graduated high school early and dove right into collaborating with Burning of Rome. She continued creating her own music while majoring in Opera Performance. While recording original works at San Diego’s Singing Serpent, she found herself becoming a musician for hire. As community took further shape, she found herself forming a new project with skilled collaborators: Belladon. An idea soon evolved into a notable band. Be it students, fellow musicians, or an audience, Aimee aspires to ensure people feel warm and welcome. Where there are no words that can be said, music can take the lead. Where there are too many feelings to comprehend, music is a place to land. And where the horizon is darkest, music can see far beyond it. Where her craft has continuously provided a path of self improvement, she invites others to challenge themselves in it as well — and to discover their own creations.
