  • “Ms. James seems an eternal fixture in the pop firmament.” – The New York Times

    American music history comes alive as Rock and Roll Hall-of-Famer and three-time Grammy winner Etta James storms into SF. James’ latest album, All The Way, features the “sexy, brash, and streetwise” (N.Y. Times) vocalist spanning pop, jazz, and blues turf with songs by Marvin Gaye, Prince, and Leonard Bernstein.

    And, just announced, San Francisco native and bluesman extraordinaire Joe Louis Walker will get things cooking with a solo acoustic set.  Get your tickets today for this very special blues summit! Read Complete Program Notes
