Rupa and the April Fishes | Indie
The Wee Trio | Jazz
San Francisco Bay Area group Rupa and the April Fishes is a mosaic of international sound and a melodic homage to the pain, love and strength of humanity. Lead singer Rupa’s reflective and yearning vocals soar in English, Spanish, French and Hindi to the background of cumbia, Indian raga, folk, soul, ska and jazz. When not performing, Rupa is a doctor of internal medicine at the University of California, San Francisco.
The Wee Trio performs jazz with a fresh energy achieved by their trifecta of vibraphone, bass and drums. Their debut release, Capitol Diner, Vol. 1, received international acclaim and was named as one of the top 10 albums of the year by the San Francisco Chronicle. Ashes to Ashes: A David Bowie Intraspective, their latest studio album, delightfully reimagines the artist’s iconic work and is a fan favorite.

The County Line Trio | Folk
The Coverlettes | 50’s Rock
For more than 45 years, The County Line Trio has been delivering true Americana folk music from their banjos and guitars. A tribute to the Kingston Trio, The County Line Trio makes music to sing along and tap your feet to using timeless beats and rhythms.
Hey mama, it’s the ‘60s. Ella, Bella and Stella Duvet are The Coverlettes, three sisters hailing from “the wrong side of Vermont” with a sassy and sweet ‘60s girl group sound. Get into the holiday spirit and croon along with The Coverlettes to a medley of Christmas songs and hits from the likes of The Shangri-Las, The Shirelles, The Ronettes and The Crystals.

Maurice Tani and 77 El Deora | Americana San Francisco’s Maurice Tani and his band, 77 El Deora, deliver a strong and soulful country sound. Self-described as “hillbilly noir”, Tani is known for his inspiring storytelling Americana with a West Coast flavor.
February 4, 2017
California Guitar Trio | Instrumental Alongside classics like Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” the California Guitar Trio entertains with a medley of surf, Spaghetti Western tune, Pink Floyd and their own original songs. Lively, and with a strong yet unassuming technical command, the trio delivers an unforgettable experience.

A celebration of a legend’s spectacular life and music, “James Garner’s Tribute to Johnny Cash” honors the Man in Black with a rich authenticity. Garner faithfully performs Cash’s greatest hits, sprinkled with historical accounts and anecdote, delivering a lively and enthralling performance following Cash’s influence.
