In that case make reservations and ask to be near the band. Bring layers to wear, as it may be cool out once night falls.

Lincoln plays with us often and is the

Sankovich also plays in.
Kurt's
ability to take you on a journey from
the deepest waters of the Caribbean to
the funky alleys of the urban jungle in
one listening makes him a truly gifted
original in my book." - Chris

SFJAZZ
Some nice press about us from
SFJAZZ:
“Joyous,” “grooving,” “bluesy,”
“sophisticated,” and “masterful” could all be
accurately used to describe bassist and
composer Kurt Ribak’s music, but perhaps an
assessment is best left to the man himself,
who calls his rollicking mix of bebop
sophistication and body-moving grooves
“Charles Mingus meets The Meters.” Ribak
brings his superb working quartet, performing
music from their most recent album
Onward.
