This May marks what would have been the 90th birthday of jazz great Shirley Horn. Paying tribute to her at Kuumbwa Jazz Thursday will be another modern jazz great: Tammy L. Hall.
This Friday, Santa Cruz fans of Corrine Bailey Rae will not have to simply put their records on to experience her music. They can do so when the Leeds, England-based neo-soul singer comes to the Rio Theatre.
Last October, singers Zella Day and Jesse Woods were set to play Moe's Alley as part of their collaboration Chaparelle. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the show was postponed. Those who have been anxiously waiting to see the two perform will not have to wait much longer. Day and Woods will be performing at the venue Thursday, and tickets purchased for the Oct. 12 show will be honored this time around.
