Her distinctive and attractive voice, bebop-influenced flute playing, and unaffected songwriting gives the jazz world a jolt of fun that it desperately needs!” – David Thorne Scott, Vocal Professor at Berklee College of Music Originally from Naples, FL, Cobby Brzeski is a nationally touring multi-instrumental, multi-genre flutist, vocalist, and songwriter from San Diego, CA that performs all around the east and west coasts. Cobby's charming voice, playful songwriting, and authenticity to the jazz tradition will make anyone feel like they're back in the 1940's. Described as a vintage girl in a modern world, Cobby’s music possesses a natural gift for sensitive, relatable storytelling and is a blend of influences from Ella Fitzgerald, Helen Forrest, The Andrew Sisters and others, twisted with modern influences like Jason Mraz, Cyrille Aimee, and PostModern Jukebox. Cobby is a 2018 magna cum laude graduate of the Berklee College of Music, and a 2023 San Diego Music Award Nominee for Best Jazz Album ("Vintage Girl In A Modern World" (2022)). Cobby presents a show full of her original 1940's swing inspired tunes, jazz & latin standards, and jazzified covers of popular music.

With The Bad Plus, acclaimed artists Chris Potter and Craig Taborn revisit the formative repertoire of Keith Jarrett’s American Quartet. The project is not simply a tribute to one of jazz’s most influential ensembles, it’s a continuation of the American Quartet’s spirit: a fearless commitment to musical dialogue, emotional depth, and boundary-pushing improvisation. Founding members Reid Anderson and Dave King, whose work with The Bad Plus helped redefine modern jazz, combine with Potter’s commanding tenor saxophone and Taborn’s brilliant piano to capture the raw, exploratory energy of the American Quartet while bringing their own distinct voices to the material.
