SUMMARY:Cantos de mi Tierra
DESCRIPTION:Armando Fox\, piano; Jesse Alejandro Cottrell\, guitar; Anastasia Preston\, bass; Ryan Friedman\, percussion; Laura Ramos & Edu González\, vocals \nFormed in the summer of 2023\, the latin cabaret ensemble Cantos di mi Tierra had its first public performances in October 2023 with three sold-out shows at Martuni’s in San Francisco and returned for two shows in January 2024. Soon after\, adding a bassist and a percussionist\, the ensemble performed at Feinstein’s at the Nikko\, again enjoying a sold out audience. Their performance on August 17\, 2024 at Feinstein’s was also sold out! Their appearance at Bird & Beckett in November 2026 was a delight\, and we’re pleased to have them back\, with a full band. \nCantos De Mi Tierra operates as a collective much more than a band. From the beginning\, they have envisioned a rotating cohort of talent\, offering something fresh and different each time out\, to introduce audiences to new sounds they may not have heard before and to provide an outlet for local talent. \n$25 cover charge; byob\nStudents $10 \nFor a reservation\, call the bookshop at 415-586-3733

SUMMARY:Chris Trinidad's Chroma Tonic
DESCRIPTION:Naima Shalhoub\, voice/keyboards; Scott Oshiro\, flute/quantum electronics; Alex Heigl\, guitar/effects; Chris Trinidad\, bass/guitar/synth/bass; Cy Thompson\, drums/percussion \nChris Trinidad’s latest project Chroma Tonic weaves together musicians from wildly divergent backgrounds in order to concoct unique sounds and intriguing groove music. Drawing inspiration from ambient music pioneers Brian Eno and Robert Fripp\, the early avant-garde space psychedelia of Pink Floyd\, the progressive electronic rock of Tu-Ner\, the adventurous electric hybrid experimentations of early seventies Miles Davis\, Chris Trinidad’s Chroma Tonic blends these explorations with the influences of the members of the group. \nNaima Shalhoub provides vocal and synthesizer textures\, Alex Heigl plays ambient and looped guitars\, Cy Thompson brings an array of Afro-Caribbean percussive elements\, Scott Oshiro performs on flute and programs the quantum (!!) electronic improvised live interactions\, while Chris Trinidad holds down the foundation on bass guitar and synth bass. \n$25 cover charge; byob\nStudents $10 \nFor a reservation\, call the bookshop at 415-586-3733
