Join us for an evening of soulful, groovy original music featuring the Bay Area’s own Emily Afton, a supremely talented singer and composer, in collaboration with Nathan Bickart (keys), Giulio Xavier Cetto (bass), and Mike Wolf Quigg (drums). Sunday Sessions feature the Nathan Bickart Trio on the first Sunday of every month.
Emily Afton’s voice is transporting. You can hear the Georgian lineage on her mother’s side, conjuring a Southern swamp, mixed with urbane pop relevance. Oakland indie-rock meets an after hours quest for mischief, with ribbons of soul and electro-pop interwoven.
The Nathan Bickart Trio combines a deep respect for jazz heritage with a desire to explore the ways in which this tradition has transformed into and supported related genres like R&B, funk, and hip-hop. Featuring Bay Area based musicians, the trio plays original compositions and jazz standards sure to brighten your evening and move your feet!
