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.

SUMMARY:Gaucho Jazz
DESCRIPTION:Gaucho is a masterful Bay Area band that combines the influence of gypsy jazz of 1930’s Europe with the rhythmic drive and collective improvisation of New Orleans swing music\, gutbucket blues and elements of ragtime. Their sound\, a uniquely American concoction\, blends instrumental acuity and lighthearted humor that keep their audience coming back for more. As founder\, guitarist\, and main composer Dave Ricketts says\, the band is “in love with the music of Louis Armstrong\, Fats Waller and Jimmie Rodgers\, as well as the stories\, the life styles and the foot steps of hundreds of other great jazz\, blues\, country and rock musicians that created the sound of American Music from roughly 1900-1950’s” \nGaucho has recorded eight albums\, tours regularly\, and has an increasing repertoire of over forty original tunes. Seven of their tunes are featured in the 2012 film “Trattoria”; one was chosen by the Metropolitan Museum of Art for their website; and another is featured in the outtakes section of the Pixar DVD CARS 2. In 2018\, Gaucho got a song in the Hollywood Movie “Destination Wedding” starring Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder. And two of Dave’s own compositions will be placed in a New York City based indie film\, “Stationed at Home\,” in 2022. \nLed by eminent guitarist\, Dave Ricketts\, the group has been a San Francisco mainstay for nearly twenty years\, and one of the busiest bands in the bay area playing 5 to 10 gigs a week. Together with virtuosos Rob Reich–accordion and Craig Venetresco–guitar\, superlative bassist Ari Munkres\, the honorable Leon Oakley–cornet\, and versatile percussionist Steve Apple\, these guys keep crowds moving with their beats and complex rhythms.

DESCRIPTION:Guitarist Stu Silverman fronts his band at the Comstock Saloon. \nStep into the storied halls of Comstock Saloon\, where the mahogany bar and vintage belt-driven fans set the stage for one of San Francisco’s most versatile guitarists. Stu Silverman brings a refined yet soulful energy to the room\, blending technical jazz precision with a raw\, bluesy edge that feels right at home in this historic North Beach landmark. \nThe Music: Silverman is a standout on the Jazz Box and Electric Guitar\, known for his work leading the Stu Silverman Quartet and the Stu Crew. His sets at Comstock often feature a mix of soulful jazz standards\, intricate bebop lines\, and a touch of psychedelic-tinged blues. Whether he’s performing solo electric or fronting a trio\, expect a performance defined by melodic warmth and rhythmic drive. \nThe Setting: Founded in 1907\, Comstock Saloon is a beautifully restored “museum of drinking.” The music stage is positioned perfectly to allow the sound of a hollow-body guitar to fill the high-ceilinged room\, creating a sophisticated backdrop for conversation and cocktails. \nThe Menu: Comstock is world-renowned for its pre-Prohibition cocktail program. Pair Silverman’s set with a Martinez or a Cherry Bounce\, and don’t miss their elevated tavern menu featuring the famous Monkey Bread or local oysters. \nThe Experience: Unlike the louder blues halls nearby\, a night with Stu Silverman at Comstock is a polished\, “cool” affair. It’s where jazz aficionados and cocktail enthusiasts meet to appreciate high-fidelity musicianship in a space that has hosted North Beach revelers for over a century.
