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.

SUMMARY:Coit Tower Poetry Club
DESCRIPTION:Vibe: Surrealist Nightfall | Candlelit Verse | Telegraph Hill Magic \nJoin the Coit Tower Poetry Club for a specialized installment of their First Friday residency. This month\, the club gathers on the back lawn of Telegraph Hill to read the works of Joyce Mansour (1928–1986)\, the Egyptian-French author celebrated as the most significant woman poet of the second-generation Surrealist movement. \nThe Featured Poet: Known for her “convulsive” beauty and unabashed exploration of desire\, anatomy\, and the macabre\, Joyce Mansour’s work challenged the traditional boundaries of Surrealism. Her poetry is visceral\, darkly humorous\, and intensely psychological—perfectly suited for the atmospheric fog of a San Francisco evening. \n\nI have eaten your desire I have drunk your breath I have slept in your shadow I have lived in your death I have seen the white bird Of your soul in my hand I have heard the low song Of the sea in your land. \n\nFrom “Cris” (1953) \nJoyce Mansour’s work often focused on the subversion of domesticity and the exploration of the “female gothic.” Her writing was a cornerstone of the post-WWII Surrealist movement in Paris\, championed by André Breton himself. Reading her work at the base of Coit Tower—surrounded by the night fog and the mechanical hum of the city—highlights the dreamlike\, disorienting power of her prose. \nThe Ritual: The reading takes place outdoors on the lawn behind Coit Tower. Following a long-standing North Beach tradition\, poets and attendees pass a book of the featured poet’s work around the circle\, with an open invitation for anyone to step forward and read a favorite passage. \nThe Setting: Perched at the summit of Telegraph Hill\, the venue offers a 360-degree backdrop of the city lights and the bay. The combination of Mansour’s surrealist imagery and the quiet\, elevated sanctuary of the tower creates a “transformative and magical” experience that feels disconnected from the modern city below. \nThe Community: This is an unpretentious\, grassroots gathering. Whether you are a lifelong scholar of French Surrealism or a passerby who happened to follow the sound of verse up the Filbert Steps\, you are welcome to join the circle.

SUMMARY:Magic School Busk
DESCRIPTION:Experience the ultimate “living theater” of North Beach as The Magic School Busk takes up their weekly residency directly in front of The Red Window. Positioned at the vibrant\, sun-soaked corner of Stockton and Columbus\, this high-energy busking collective captures the spontaneous spirit of the neighborhood. \nThe performance is a masterclass in Street Swing and improvisational Jazz. Drawing from the “busking” tradition of New Orleans and the European “Hot Club” sound\, the ensemble specializes in acoustic music that is both technically brilliant and completely unpretentious. The line-up is fluid\, often featuring a “who’s who” of local instrumentalists who bring a “restless melodicism” to classic standards and upbeat\, toe-tapping originals. \nThe Magic School Busk is more than just a band; they are the neighborhood’s “resident joy-makers.” Because they perform on the street level\, the barrier between musician and audience disappears\, inviting passersby to stop\, dance\, and engage with the music in real-time. Whether you are enjoying a gin tonic on the Red Window’s outdoor patio or just walking by with a cannoli in hand\, the band provides an elite\, soulful soundtrack that defines the modern North Beach experience. \n\nAbout The Magic School Busk\nBorn from the city’s post-pandemic “street-side” revival\, The Magic School Busk is a collective of veteran Bay Area musicians dedicated to the art of public performance. They emphasize the “acoustic and the authentic\,” eschewing heavy amplification for the natural resonance of brass\, strings\, and woodwinds. Often featuring members from some of the city’s most popular jazz and swing outfits\, the “Busk” is celebrated for its ability to read a crowd and create a party out of thin air. They represent the best of San Francisco’s musical resilience—keeping the city’s culture loud\, proud\, and accessible to everyone on the street. \n

SUMMARY:Mitch Polzak
DESCRIPTION:The big guy from out West and larger than life energy (he’s also 6’5’) performer\, guitarist\, singer\, banjoist\, songwriter\, composer\, entertainer\, musical historian and teacher Mitch Polzak wears his heart on his sleeve and his playing in his heart. \nPolzak performs rockabilly and 60’s country music with the religious fervor of Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash and delivers a Honky Tonk ballad with the sincerity of Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings. Mitch will bring a room to a fevered pitch of joyous energy on the dance floor and then tell you a story in a song like two old friends sitting at a kitchen table at midnight. \nHis virtuosic guitar skills and influences range from the blazing flying fingers of Joe Maphis \, Marty Stuart\, Roy Clark\, and Don Rich to the timeless dreamlike state of “Sleepwalk” by Santo and Johnny along with the vast valleys of deep rumbling twang associated with Duane Eddy. \nThere is not one singular definition of Polzak’s music but that is very specific to what he does. Being fluent in the musical languages of Country\, Rockabilly\, Honky Tonk\, The Bakersfield Sound\, Surf\, early Rock and Roll\, Bluegrass\, Cajun\, Blues\, and Truck Driving music gives Polzak the unique voice of the melting pot of the American musical experience. This is why he consistently connects with so many people directly at every show. \nPolzak’s abundant joy in communicating with people through music leaps off the stage through every fiber of his being. His near-constant genuine smile can be seen clear across the room and invites you in without any pretense or judgements. Some call him “The Honky Tonk Mister Rogers”! \nMake no mistake though. Underneath that smile is a deep and reverent respect for the history and integrity of the music and musicians who came before him and created the sounds and told their stories. \nJust as Waylon Jennings created his own outlaw sound\, as Johnny Cash could never be put in a box\, the full throttle intensity of Jerry Lee Lewis’s rock and roll grabs us and takes to a time and place\, Polzak’s live show has the unvarnished purity of the Bakersfield Sound paying homage to his California musical heroes Buck Owens\, Merle Haggard\, Wynn Stewart and Dwight Yokam. It’s a heaping helping\, but a Mitch Polzak show brings all of these musical flavors to the table in a potluck of American musical flavor. \nPolzak learned firsthand from some of his musical influences\, sharing the stage with legends like Don Maddox of The Maddox Bros. and Rose\, deeply respected contemporary and friend Deke Dickerspn\, The Ragin’ Cajun Doug Kershaw\, Rockabilly icons Joe Clay and Gene Summers\, former Bluegrass Boy and West Coast music pioneer Peter Rowan and Cajun greats Jimmy Breaux\, Andrew Carriere\, and Blake Miller. He has also shared the bill with Brian Setzer\, Jerry Lee Lewis\, Duane Eddy\, The Stray Cats\, Big Sandy and The Fly Rite Boys\, and Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives.

SUMMARY:Magic School Busk
DESCRIPTION:Experience the ultimate “living theater” of North Beach as The Magic School Busk takes up their weekly residency directly in front of The Red Window. Positioned at the vibrant\, sun-soaked corner of Stockton and Columbus\, this high-energy busking collective captures the spontaneous spirit of the neighborhood. \nThe performance is a masterclass in Street Swing and improvisational Jazz. Drawing from the “busking” tradition of New Orleans and the European “Hot Club” sound\, the ensemble specializes in acoustic music that is both technically brilliant and completely unpretentious. The line-up is fluid\, often featuring a “who’s who” of local instrumentalists who bring a “restless melodicism” to classic standards and upbeat\, toe-tapping originals. \nThe Magic School Busk is more than just a band; they are the neighborhood’s “resident joy-makers.” Because they perform on the street level\, the barrier between musician and audience disappears\, inviting passersby to stop\, dance\, and engage with the music in real-time. Whether you are enjoying a gin tonic on the Red Window’s outdoor patio or just walking by with a cannoli in hand\, the band provides an elite\, soulful soundtrack that defines the modern North Beach experience. \n\nAbout The Magic School Busk\nBorn from the city’s post-pandemic “street-side” revival\, The Magic School Busk is a collective of veteran Bay Area musicians dedicated to the art of public performance. They emphasize the “acoustic and the authentic\,” eschewing heavy amplification for the natural resonance of brass\, strings\, and woodwinds. Often featuring members from some of the city’s most popular jazz and swing outfits\, the “Busk” is celebrated for its ability to read a crowd and create a party out of thin air. They represent the best of San Francisco’s musical resilience—keeping the city’s culture loud\, proud\, and accessible to everyone on the street. \n

SUMMARY:Suzanna Smith
DESCRIPTION:Returning to Keys\, Suzanna Smith fronts another stellar ensemble to work her magic around the Peggy Lee songbook. “There are relatively few contemporary female vocalists who evoke Peggy Lee\, at least not genuinely. Suzanna Smith numbers among that rare ilk. That Smith sounds like Lee — slightly breathy and warmly sensual with a hint of huskiness — is undeniable\, but the parallels extend much further. Lee’s ability to not just caress a ballad but smother it in mink has seldom been matched. She was also a sage swinger — never too much\, never too little — as well as a first-rate songwriter. Smith checks all those boxes.” \n— Christopher Louden\, Jazz Times

SUMMARY:Dave Easley Trio
DESCRIPTION:As a young man Dave Easley found himself playing pedal steel with seasoned jazz  musicians twice his age\, including Lin Halliday\, a veteran of the Glenn Miller and  Maynard Ferguson groups. Dave’s first tackling of the classic\, Giant Steps\, was  accompanied with Lin’s personal account of John Coltrane’s private remarks on the  landmark recording. From this\, “jumping into the deep end”\, Dave carried away a sense  of spontaneity combined with a deep work ethic that has carried him through many  years of stage and studio appearances alongside superb performers such as\, Brian  Blade\, Jim Singleton\, Charlie Byrd\, Dr. John\, Coco Robicheaux\, Cyril Neville\, Joni  Mitchell\, Colonel Bruce Hampton\, George Porter\, Peter Rowan\, Ruthie Foster (on her  Grammy nominated\, Let It Burn)\, Howard Levy\, Bill Kreutzman of the Grateful Dead\,  Jeff Matika of Green Day\, Jerry Jemmott…   \nDave’s two most recent releases are Byways of the Moon\, which received a positive  review on NPR and was selected “Best Jazz on Bandcamp” for January 2022\, and  Easley Rider featuring the rhythm section from the Iguanas along with Kass Krebs and  the late\, great\, Alfred Uganda Roberts.

SUMMARY:Mr. Lucky & The Cocktail Party
DESCRIPTION:Mr.Lucky’s on-stage adventures have run from 1970s punk to new wave to poetry-performance; a beatnik combo; the jazzy Ring-a-Ding Duo (1981-‘83); and on into the martini-swilling Mr. Lucky ‘performance art’ (1983) that morphed into an off-beat jazz-eclectic creation called the Mr. Lucky Experience: re-styling the Songbook\, creating live mash-ups (in 1993!)

SUMMARY:Sunday Artist Series
DESCRIPTION:End your week with a rhythmic bang at the Sunday Artist Series\, a weekly institution at Tupelo that transforms North Beach into a soulful dance party. Hosted by the versatile Shawn Stein\, this residency is built around an “all-pro” house band that provides a world-class foundation for a rotating cast of the Bay Area’s most powerhouse vocalists. From 8:00 PM to midnight\, the room sheds its weekday grit for a polished\, high-fidelity exploration of funk\, R&B\, and soul\, making it the definitive “musician’s hangout” in the neighborhood. \nThe magic of the series lies in its unpredictability and its caliber of talent. Because a different guest artist takes the lead each week\, the sound can pivot from the brassy energy of a James Brown-style funk review to the smooth\, sophisticated textures of modern neo-soul. It is a space where local legends and touring pros often drop in to sit with the band\, creating a “who’s who” environment for the San Francisco music scene. The house band is known for their “deep pocket” and the ability to back any style with technical precision and infectious joy. \nThe atmosphere at Tupelo during the Artist Series is electric yet welcoming\, drawing a diverse crowd of neighborhood regulars\, off-duty musicians\, and soul aficionados. Set against the venue’s classic red-lit stage and historic Grant Avenue backdrop\, the event offers a rare opportunity to experience an elite\, high-energy “dance party throw-down” with no cover charge. Whether you are there to dance off the weekend or simply to appreciate the highest level of local musicianship\, the Sunday Artist Series ensures that the spirit of North Beach soul remains loud and alive.

SUMMARY:Jon Otis & BluBeatz
DESCRIPTION:The Blu Beatz sound is a kaleidoscopic fusion of Jazz\, Blues\, R&B\, Rock & Roll\, Pop\, Salsa\, Latin Jazz\, Brazilian\, Afro-Caribbean\, Folk\, Classical\, Afro\, and Middle Eastern & Eastern rhythms. \nThe Saloon—San Francisco’s oldest operating tavern—hosts the “BluBeatz” sound of Jon Otis. Stepping into this Grant Avenue institution is like stepping back to 1861; with its original carved wooden bar and storied “stout timbers” that survived the 1906 quake. \nThe Artist: Jon Otis\, son of the “Godfather of Rhythm and Blues” Johnny Otis\, carries on a formidable musical dynasty. A master drummer\, percussionist\, and vocalist\, Jon has spent decades touring with greats like Solomon Burke and his brother Shuggie Otis. \nThe Setting: The Saloon is an unapologetic\, no-frills dive bar where the music is loud and the history is thick. There are no fancy craft cocktails here—just cold beer\, stiff shots\, and a “Dolby on steroids” sound system that makes every kick drum hit resonate in your chest. \nThe Experience: This is a “late show” staple. As the fog rolls through North Beach\, the interior of The Saloon heats up into one of the city’s most authentic dance scenes. Expect a diverse mix of neighborhood legends\, blues aficionados\, and travelers all unified by the groove.
