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:Marcus Shelby Celebrates the Miles Davis Centennial
DESCRIPTION:Mike Olmos (trumpet)\nRaffi Garribedian (tenor)\nGreg Jacobs (piano)\nJaimeo Brown (drums)\nMarcus Shelby (bass) \nMiles Dewey Davis was born on May 26\, 1926 making this entire year the centennial anniversary of arguably the most influential trumpet player in history.

This era was an artistically rich and innovative period for Miles Davis that included working with John Coltrane\, Bill Evans\, Wayne Shorter\, Herbie Hancock\, Ron Carter\, Tony Williams\, Red Garland\, Cannonball Adderley\, Jimmy Cobb.

SUMMARY:Luther S. Allison
DESCRIPTION:“He’s reamplifying the tradition of jazz piano and he’s lifting up a legacy that’s the foundation for many people” -New York Times. Accomplished multi-instrumentalist Luther S. Allison has set himself apart as one of the most in-demand artists in jazz today. Forging a path on both piano and drum set\, Allison cemented himself as one of the leading voices of his generation. The Charlotte\, North Carolina native is recognized for his blues-based\, gospel inspired playing with deep roots in the tradition of bebop and soul music. Upon completing his B.A. in Studio Music and Jazz from the University of Tennessee and M.M. in Jazz Studies from Michigan State University (both degrees with focuses in drum set and piano) Allison began a consistent touring career on both instruments supporting the likes of Jazzmeia Horn\, Helen Sung\, Samara Joy\, Rodney Whitaker\, Etienne Charles\, The Baylor Project\, and Ulysses Owens Jr. Allison’s debut album\, I Owe It All To You\, was released on Posi-Tone Records\, highlighting his noteworthy arrangements\, compositional prowess\, and exceptional skill as a pianist. Rated 4.5 stars by Downbeat\, the album was described as “a portrait of a straight-ahead pianist who seems to have no weak points in his arsenal” -Downbeat. Allison is also featured as a sideman on numerous projects – notably the GRAMMY Award Winning single\, Tight\, supporting vocalist Samara Joy. Allison is a distinguished touring artist who has taken the stage at notable venues such as Village Vanguard\, Dizzy’s Club\, Birdland\, Kennedy Center\, and Blue Note Milano. He has also been featured at renowned jazz festivals including Newport\, Monterey\, Detroit\, Washington DC\, North Sea\, Umbria\, Marciac\, and Jazz A Vienne. In addition to his work as a bandleader and sideman\, Allison is a consummate educator and curator – having operated as Adjunct Jazz Faculty (4 years) and Chair of the Percussion Department (2 years) at The Calhoun School in New York City. He has also served on faculty for numerous summer intensives\, particularly the Brevard Jazz Institute and the Stanford Jazz Workshop. Allison has worked in conjunction with the National Jazz Museum in Harlem as a Curatorial Fellow where he assisted the organization by programming and curating events in the museum for an entire calendar year. Moreover\, Allison has curated and music directed performances for the Louis Armstrong Museum in Queens\, New York. As a composer\, Allison has already begun to leave an indelible mark\, leading to him being commissioned by Wynton Marsalis to compose an original work for the esteemed Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Allison was also commissioned by Jazz at Lincoln Center to music direct and arrange the Sacred Works of Duke Ellington – initially featured in Dizzy’s Club and later expanded for the Appel Room. Alongside his achievements as a musician/composer/music director\, Allison is featured as both an actor and recorded musician on Maggie Gylenhaal’s upcoming film The Bride\, contributing on screen along with several recorded tracks for the film score. Luther Allison is a proud YAMAHA artist.

SUMMARY:Rotating Bands at the Lion’s Den
DESCRIPTION:Experience the resurgence of San Francisco’s historic Chinatown nightlife at the Lion’s Den.  Tucked away on Wentworth Place\, this bi-level lounge and performance space blends modern cocktail culture with the East meets West spirit of the Chinatown’s golden age. Every week\, the venue transforms into a unique destination for live music\, featuring a rotating roster of the city’s up and coming funk\, soul\, and R&B ensembles. \nThe Sound: From 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM\, the stage belongs to a curated selection of live bands. The rotation frequently features bands such as Mark Maiden\, Funky Sound Experience\, Jay Neal\, The Groove Foundation\, Baycoin Beats\, and Git With It. Whether it’s deep-pocket funk or smooth contemporary soul\, the music is designed to bridge the gap between a sophisticated lounge set and a packed dance floor. \nThe Atmosphere: The design features plush velvet banquettes\, historic photography\, and dim\, moody lighting. It is a space built for “adult” nightlife—where you can enjoy an Asian-inspired craft cocktail during the live set before the room transitions to a high-energy DJ vibe after 11:00 PM. \nThe Experience: The Lion’s Den is a rare “no cover” gem in the heart of the city\, offering world-class musicianship in an intimate\, stylish setting. It is a place to rediscover the “cool” of Chinatown while supporting the next generation of San Francisco’s musical talent. \n\nA Legacy Reclaimed\nThe Lion’s Den occupies a legendary footprint in San Francisco history. In the 1940s and 50s\, Chinatown was a global nightlife epicenter\, home to iconic clubs like the Forbidden City. The current venue at 57 Wentworth Place was once the site of Dragon A Go Go\, a 1960s hotspot that kept the neighborhood buzzing during the height of the San Francisco counterculture. After decades of relative quiet due to changing zoning laws\, the reopening of The Lion’s Den in 2021 marked the first new nightclub to open in Chinatown in nearly 40 years. Today\, it stands as a cultural bridge\, honoring the glamour of the “Harlem of the West” era while providing a vital modern stage for Asian-American artists and the local creative community.

SUMMARY:Stu Silverman Band
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 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.

DESCRIPTION:“He’s reamplifying the tradition of jazz piano and he’s lifting up a legacy that’s the foundation for many people” -New York Times. Accomplished multi-instrumentalist Luther S. Allison has set himself apart as one of the most in-demand artists in jazz today. Forging a path on both piano and drum set\, Allison cemented himself as one of the leading voices of his generation. The Charlotte\, North Carolina native is recognized for his blues-based\, gospel inspired playing with deep roots in the tradition of bebop and soul music. Upon completing his B.A. in Studio Music and Jazz from the University of Tennessee and M.M. in Jazz Studies from Michigan State University (both degrees with focuses in drum set and piano) Allison began a consistent touring career on both instruments supporting the likes of Jazzmeia Horn\, Helen Sung\, Samara Joy\, Rodney Whitaker\, Etienne Charles\, The Baylor Project\, and Ulysses Owens Jr. Allison’s debut album\, I Owe It All To You\, was released on Posi-Tone Records\, highlighting his noteworthy arrangements\, compositional prowess\, and exceptional skill as a pianist. Rated 4.5 stars by Downbeat\, the album was described as “a portrait of a straight-ahead pianist who seems to have no weak points in his arsenal” -Downbeat. Allison is also featured as a sideman on numerous projects – notably the GRAMMY Award Winning single\, Tight\, supporting vocalist Samara Joy. Allison is a distinguished touring artist who has taken the stage at notable venues such as Village Vanguard\, Dizzy’s Club\, Birdland\, Kennedy Center\, and Blue Note Milano. He has also been featured at renowned jazz festivals including Newport\, Monterey\, Detroit\, Washington DC\, North Sea\, Umbria\, Marciac\, and Jazz A Vienne.

He has also served on faculty for numerous summer intensives\, particularly the Brevard Jazz Institute and the Stanford Jazz Workshop. Allison has worked in conjunction with the National Jazz Museum in Harlem as a Curatorial Fellow where he assisted the organization by programming and curating events in the museum for an entire calendar year. Moreover\, Allison has curated and music directed performances for the Louis Armstrong Museum in Queens\, New York. As a composer\, Allison has already begun to leave an indelible mark\, leading to him being commissioned by Wynton Marsalis to compose an original work for the esteemed Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Allison was also commissioned by Jazz at Lincoln Center to music direct and arrange the Sacred Works of Duke Ellington – initially featured in Dizzy’s Club and later expanded for the Appel Room. Alongside his achievements as a musician/composer/music director\, Allison is featured as both an actor and recorded musician on Maggie Gylenhaal’s upcoming film The Bride\, contributing on screen along with several recorded tracks for the film score.

SUMMARY:Dewayne Oakley and Ralph Nelson
DESCRIPTION:Transport yourself to the Rive Gauche without leaving Fillmore Street. Chouquet’s invites you to experience “Jazz on the Patio\,” a long-standing neighborhood tradition that pairs world-class live music with the breezy elegance of a classic French bistro. Set against the backdrop of one of San Francisco’s most iconic shopping corridors\, this event offers a high-fidelity sensory experience where the “restless melodicism” of local jazz meets the refined flavors of France. \nFeaturing the Dewayne Oakley Blues Ensemble\nThis weekend’s soundtrack is provided by the seasoned mastery of Dewayne Oakley and Ralph Nelson. As cornerstones of the Bay Area music scene\, this duo brings a rich\, soulful texture to the patio: \nDewayne Oakley (Bass & Vocals): A veteran with over 50 years in the industry\, Oakley is a master of “city music with a country soul.” His deep\, resonant bass violin and gravelly\, heartfelt vocals bridge the gap between sophisticated jazz standards and raw\, acoustic blues. \nRalph Nelson (Guitar): Originally a drummer from a New York jazz family (his father’s dental patients included Max Roach and Sonny Rollins!)\, Nelson switched to guitar after falling under the spell of Jimi Hendrix. His style is firmly rooted in hard bop\, bringing a melodic versatility that dances effortlessly between blues grit and jazz precision. \nThe Experience\nThe Setting: Relax on the expansive\, heated sidewalk patio—one of the best people-watching spots in the city. The outdoor seating allows you to soak in the Pacific Heights sun while enjoying the acoustic warmth of live upright bass and hollow-body guitar. \nThe Menu: Enhance the rhythm with Chouquet’s signature bistro fare. Indulge in local favorites like the Moules Frites\, Croque Madame\, or a crisp glass of Sancerre from their extensive French-focused wine list. \nThe Atmosphere: This is an unpretentious yet polished affair\, perfect for a romantic date\, a sophisticated family brunch\, or a solo afternoon of “art and aperitifs.”

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:Bluegrass Jam
DESCRIPTION:The Lucky Horseshoe hosts its long-standing Bluegrass Jam every Sunday afternoon. Unlike a typical circle jam\, this is a unique “performance” jam where musicians take to the stage to play into microphones for a live crowd. It’s an intermediate-to-advanced level session that brings together the best of the Bay Area’s roots and bluegrass community\, turning the Bernal Heights tavern into a high-energy honky-tonk for three hours every week. \n\n\nThe Performance Format: This session is specifically designed as a “on-stage” experience. Musicians are encouraged to step up to the mic\, fostering a professional yet welcoming atmosphere that bridges the gap between a casual rehearsal and a formal concert. \n\n\nSkill Level Requirements: The jam is tailored for intermediate players who are comfortable leading a vocal or instrumental song. The ability to “call a tune” and guide the ensemble is a key part of the ritual\, ensuring a high-quality listening experience for the patrons in the bar. \n\n\nA Neighborhood Tradition: Sponsored in part by the California Bluegrass Association (CBA)\, the jam is a quintessential Sunday social in Bernal Heights. The “Shoe” provides the perfect wood-paneled backdrop\, complete with strong drinks and a dog-friendly policy that welcomes the whole community. \n\n\nAcoustic & Unplugged: While the stage is amplified\, the heart of the music remains strictly acoustic\, celebrating the traditional sounds of banjo\, fiddle\, mandolin\, and upright bass in their purest forms. \n\n\n\nAbout the Organizer: California Bluegrass Association (CBA) \nThe Sunday Horseshoe Jam is part of the broader mission of the California Bluegrass Association\, a non-profit dedicated to the preservation and promotion of bluegrass\, old-time\, and gospel music. By supporting weekly residencies like this one\, the CBA ensures that traditional American music remains a vibrant\, living part of San Francisco’s urban culture. Whether you are a seasoned picker looking for a stage or a fan of high-speed flatpicking\, these Sunday sessions offer an authentic slice of the “high lonesome sound” right on Cortland Avenue.
