Terrence Brewer Annual Birthday Concert!

Described by JazzTimes as "A melodic improviser with an exquisite tone and an abundance of soul," Bay Area guitarist and composer Terrence Brewe joins us for an amazing evening of jazz as we celebrate his birthday! Born in Oklahoma but raised in the East Bay, Brewer cut his teeth in the San Francisco jazz scene, studying with Charlie Hunter and Mark Levine before rocketing to national attention with his 2006 debut release, The Calling: Vol. One. He has shared the stage with artists including Diana Krall, Mary Wilson, Gerald Albright and the Doobie Brothers' Michael McDonald, and released six albums on his own Strong Brew label. In addition to his relentless schedule as an in-demand performer with his jazz combos and ultra-funky Citizen Rhythm project, Brewer is a dedicated educator, conducting workshops and master classes around the Bay Area.

"(Brewer's) guitar work is fluent, and his feel for the groove is unerring... " Billboard

"A naturally gifted player with a beautiful, warm tone and a melodic penchant, his playing is eminently pleasing. " JazzTimes
