It’s that time of year again. Our jazz festival, Jazz at Naz, is returning for its third iteration. Four of those concerts are in our immersive Jazz Club, which has become a favorite of Soraya audiences. A couple of those performances are very nearly sold out already, and I’m excited to share some important news – we have a new chef! Watch the video here to learn all about our partnership with the local restaurant Humble Bee Bakery & Cafe and Chef Jim Bonanno.
Two of the nights in the Jazz Club feature keyboardist Booker T. Jones and the young keyboard phenom Matthew Whittaker. I had an opportunity to spend a few minutes with Matthew and that interview video is also attached to this email.
Gratefully,
