Free for SFJAZZ Members*
Public: $15
Step into the SFJAZZ “living room” and hear artists and tastemakers spinning their favorite recordings while in conversation. Listening Parties offer listeners the chance to get behind-the- scenes and hear about music from the artist’s perspective. The format is an on-stage conversation in the Robert N. Miner Auditorium, accompanied by the artist’s pick of recorded, and sometimes live, excerpts. The conversation closes with questions from the audience followed by a reception with complimentary drinks and bites.
This Listening Party features Snarky Puppy bandleader, bassist and composer Michael League in conversation with SFJAZZ Executive Artistic Director Terence Blanchard discussing everything from the GRAMMY-winning Snarky Puppy collective, his label GroundUP, the state of jazz today and more. Snarky Puppy performs at SFJAZZ, October 3-6, 2024.
Listening Parties are complimentary to all current SFJAZZ Members. Ticket(s) must be reserved online. Members may bring one additional guest for free. Premium seating will be reserved for Leaders Circle Members. Also, please note that if you are unable to attend, the Listening Party will be live-streamed.
*Except Monthly and Digital Members. Upgrade today to join us at the SFJAZZ Center for free.
