But nothing beats being in the room with the music & the musicians!

Tammy Lynne Hall is among the premier pianists in the Bay Area, with a richly deserved international reputation and audience. Her playing is steeped in jazz, gospel and classical influences. She is one of our most treasured artists in this music!
“A musician who has much to offer in the way of originality, fine technique and a rich, emotional quality that is evident on everything she does. Her playing is warm and persuasive and a listener’s delight.â€
– Marian McPartland, Piano Jazz

Donate if you can. But if it’s a strain, enjoy the music and take heart! Remember us when you’re back in the chips.
We’re grateful the many individuals in the community who donate to our nonprofit Bird & Beckett Cultural Legacy Project (the “BBCLPâ€) to help us build up the general fund from which we augment audience revenues when necessary, so that we can consistently offer a guaranteed “fair wage” of $150 per performer in our music bookings. Pushing for a decent minimum guarantee for gigging musicians is an important part of our mission, and is an effort we share with the Independent Musicians Alliance and Jazz in the neighborhood. Your donations are crucial, and monthly donations are particularly helpful.
Donate to the BBCLP at this link to further our work!
