 Over the past decade, jazz pianist and Origin Records recording artist Danny Green has earned recognition as a bandleader and as a composer with a gift for spinning lyrical, absorbing narratives. Green’s growing portfolio of vibrant sounds – an enchanting mix of jazz, classical, and Brazilian rhythms – has captured the attention of critics around the world, including DownBeat Magazine, Jazziz, the San Diego Union Tribune, the Boston Globe, and Public Radio International. It’s no small wonder that Green has earned two San Diego Music awards for Best Jazz Album and an additional award for Best Jazz Artist. His long-time trio includes bassist Justin Grinnell and drummer Julien Cantelm, noteworthy musicians in their own right, and together they have developed a nearly psychic connection as they perform Green’s original compositions and jazz standards. Green takes listeners on a journey that is equal parts introspective and exuberant, and always compelling. 
Meridian Odyssey features saxophonist Santosh Sharma, pianist Dylan Haye, guitarist Martin Budde, bassist Ben Feldman, and drummer Xavier Lecouturier. This concert is part of their thirteen-stop "West Coast" Tour. Their recent Origin Records release, Second Wave, contains mostly original songs by the band members and sounds like 21st-century hard bop, influenced by modern pop and classic jazz fusion. KNKX radio host and jazz critic said of the group, “Each of these players is incredibly talented; their youthful exhuberance shines through on urgent and passionate uptempo flights and intense, moody ballads alike. There are hooks to be found throughout Second Wave, but the band's interplay - the musical conversation in each performance - is most striking to my ear.” Concert goers can expect two sets packed with top-notch musicianship, beautiful song-writing, high energy and all around fun!

The minimalist English octet stresses a communal spirit in its Tiny Desk performance.

Attendees must be vaccinated and masks must be worn inside. For the last two decades Jeff Berkley and Calman Hart have been entertaining audiences with their natural down-home humor and masterfully-crafted songs. In 2018, they celebrated their 20th anniversary with a live performance of their debut album, Wreck ‘N Sow. Released in 2000, Wreck ‘N Sow was a critical success out of the box, winning the San Diego Music Award for Best Local Recording and helping Berkley Hart take home the coveted Best New Artist trophy as well. In the years since, they’ve played festivals, performing arts centers, and house concerts all over the country, recording another ten albums and winning several more awards along the way. In 2016 alone, they put out three albums: BHST (with Eve Selis and Marc Intravaia), A Berkley Hart Christmas, and Fleur De Lis, a powerful collection of 20 songs combining their trademark vocal harmony and unique acoustic style to create a listening experience that is, as one critic put it, “warm and peaceful as a summer evening on the bayou”. They have also become well-known for their theme-shows, most notably their productions of O Berkley Where Hart Thou, an old-timey tribute to classic Americana, and their recreation of The Last Waltz, a passionate homage to The Band’s 1976 farewell concert. Their latest release, in 2018, While The Night Is Still Young, won the SDMA for Best Americana Album. Local singer-songwriter, guitarist Mark Montijo will open the show. Follow on Facebook!
