A fresh voice on the San Francisco jazz scene, pianist Rumi Abe arrived from Nagoya, Japan in the fall of 2024 and is already woven into the fabric of Bay Area jazz culture. Come hear her at Bird & Beckett with a few of our great friends in jazz, saxophonist Steven Lugerner, bassist Isaac Coyle and drummer Miles Turk. Jazz is constantly renewing itself, drawing on history to forge a future we can embrace.

Rumi began playing Electone at age 4. She studied music theory and composition at Yamaha Music School, and refined her jazz skills under the mentorship of legends Fumio Karashima and Josh Nelson to the point where she was performing over 200 shows annually across Tokyo. In 2022, she released her debut album with her trio. Now based in San Francisco, Rumi has been performing and sharing her music at the main jazz clubs of the Bay Area as a leader and a sideman.
