  • About Gypsy Sally 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.

  • July 13 - August 17 Opening reception: 5 - 8 p.m. Saturday, July 13.Gallery hours:11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday From the gallery:BEST PRACTICE is excited to announce the opening of and Elsewhere, the first exhibition of the work of Tigercrow Collective (Cat Gunn, Kirstyn Hom, Heige Kim, Jun!yi Min, and naomi nadreau). While the images, videos and sculptures included in this presentation all originate from each artist’s studio, the margins between these works blur opening up occasions for collaboration in the gallery.About the exhibition:'and Elsewhere' is Tigercrow Collective’s first exhibition together, which ruminates on experiences of longing for home. The word home is not particular, but home is always with elsewhere. Simultaneously specific and ambiguous, “elsewhere” invokes the notion of a place anywhere and here, recalling displacement, precarity, and Asian diasporic memory. Utilizing singular and collaborative artworks, the collective seeks places of refuge through objects that hold memory, materials that preserve touch, and references to ever-changing landscapes. The installation begins to connect these points of belonging to trace a transitory narrative together.
  • From the organizers: For 24 years, the Athenaeum has presented unforgettable festivals featuring Gustavo Romero performing the complete piano repertoire of a specific composer. Whether you have been with us all 24 years or have yet to experience the wonder of this artist—who plays from memory—you will not want to miss our upcoming 25th Summer Festival. Romero, a native San Diegan, with a heritage in Guadalajara, first performed at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library as a young boy, and it was with him that the Athenaeum planned its first Summer Festival in 1999, the organization's 100th anniversary. Each year, Romero chooses composers to study in depth, sharing the full range of their artistry. Dinners will be offered at the Athenaeum after the first and last concerts (July 7 and 28), providing an opportunity for concertgoers to socialize, meet Mr. Romero, and share a delicious meal. All concerts begin at 4 PM at the Athenaeum. Priority seating will be given to Donor-level members and above, and to dinner guests. 4 p.m. on Sundays: July 7, 14, 21 and 28, 2024 Related links: Athenaeum Music & Arts Library website | Instagram | Facebook
