SUMMARY:Dennis Palmieri
DESCRIPTION:Join Dennis Palmieri for an evening of melodic storytelling and “Pop Piano Cabaret” at Sheba Piano Lounge on Wednesday from 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM. Shifting away from the venue’s traditional jazz and blues\, Palmieri brings a warm\, singer-songwriter sensibility to the Fillmore. His sets are a journey through the soundtracks of the 70s and 80s\, blended with original compositions from his recent debut EP\, Avenues. \nThe Sound: Palmieri specializes in loungy\, piano-driven renditions of iconic pop and soft-rock favorites. Expect a repertoire influenced by the likes of Billy Joel\, Cat Stevens\, and James Taylor—music where the melody is front and center and the lyrics invite you to sing along. \nOriginal Artistry: The performance also showcases Palmieri’s own work\, including his local anthem “Avenues\,” an ode to finding one’s home in San Francisco. His songwriting is deeply personal\, often exploring themes of self-discovery and urban life with a melodic\, sophisticated touch. \nIntimate & Engaging: As a performer who thrives on human connection\, Palmieri turns the lush\, candlelit environment of Sheba into a communal living room. It’s an evening designed for relaxation\, where the music feels like a familiar conversation between old friends. \nA Different Shade of Sheba: While many nights at the lounge are defined by high-energy jazz or deep blues\, Palmieri’s residency offers a “calm and enjoyable” mid-week alternative\, perfect for those who appreciate the craft of a classic piano man. \n\nAbout Dennis Palmieri\nOriginally from Long Island and inspired by the storytelling of the great 70s singer-songwriters\, Dennis Palmieri has become a beloved fixture in the San Francisco cabaret and lounge scene. After years away\, he returned to the city to find his voice as a solo artist\, launching his signature “Pop Piano Cabaret” and releasing his first EP in late 2025. Known for his “unpretentious mastery” and relatable stage presence\, Palmieri is part of a new wave of performers bringing the intimate\, song-focused tradition of the classic piano lounge back to the forefront of San Francisco nightlife.

SUMMARY:Alison Shearer Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Called “a force on the rise” by JazzTimes magazine\, Alison Shearer’s explosive career hits refresh on what it means to be a jazz saxophonist today.

She has performed with notable artists such as Kurt Elling\, Nate Smith\, Charlie Hunter\, Ben Platt\, Billy Porter\, Kelly O’Hara\, Jason Robert Brown\, Josh Groban\, and the wonderful Orchestra of St. Luke’s.

Their first record\, View From Above\, was named one of NPR’s Top Ten Albums of the Year and was an Editor’s Choice in Jazz Times. Her most recent release In The Garden (Pinch Records) came out on October 10\, 2025 and was named a best October release by NPR\, which led to an interview with Alison Stewart on WNYC. \nAlison premiered her first ever chamber work for the classical stage in April 2024 to a sold-out audience at USCB Center for the Arts in Beaufort\, South Carolina. The piece\, “Apollosis”\, commissioned by USCB Chamber Music and written for alto saxophone and piano sextet\, got rave reviews and kicked off a flurry of engagements and additional commissions. In 2025 Alison got a record deal with Pinch Records and a second commission from USCB Chamber Music – this time for alto saxophone\, marimba\, piano\, and voice. ROCO Symphony in Houston Texas commissioned Shearer’s first orchestral work\, which will be a saxophone concert based on the abstract artwork of her late father\, acclaimed LIFE photojournalist\, John Shearer. The piece will be premiered at the opening of their 2026 – 2027 season. \nAlison is a passionate teacher and has maintained a private studio for 18 years. She is on faculty at the Jazz at Lincoln Center High School Jazz Academy and at Jazz House Kids\, where her work with young students fosters community building through jazz education. Alison is an endorsing artist with D’Addario Reeds. \nBand lineup:\nAlison Shearer\, saxes and flute\nKevin Bernstein\, keys\nMarty Kenney\, bass\nDiego Ramirez\, drums

SUMMARY:Katy Stephan
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Stephan brings torch songs\, swing standards\, and a touch of twang to the Comstock Saloon’s polished‑but‑raucous barroom. Her voice leans into the room’s natural reverb\, floating over brushed drums\, piano\, and upright bass while cocktails clink and the lights stay low. Expect classic tunes\, a few deep‑cut surprises\, and the kind of between‑song banter that makes the band feel like part of the crowd. It’s the perfect soundtrack for settling into a leather booth\, ordering something stirred\, and letting the night stretch out a little longer than you planned.
