Jazz Mafia, the dynamic musical collective hailing from Oakland, California, mesmerizes audiences with their eclectic fusion of jazz, hip-hop, funk, and beyond. Led by composer and trombonist Adam Theis, Jazz Mafia captivates listeners with their innovative arrangements and infectious energy.

For this event, they will be honoring Prince on his birthday! Prince Rogers Nelson (June 7, 1958 – April 21, 2016) was an American singer, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, record producer, and actor. The recipient of numerous awards and nominations, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest musicians of his generation. His wide vocal range, and his skill as a multi-instrumentalist, along with a love for a wide variety of styles, including funk, R&B, rock, new wave, jazz, blues, and soul will make him a revered musician for decades to come.

Featured vocalist Kate Lamont is a UK born and USA raised vocalist with roots R&B and Jazz and is gearing up to bring Prince's music to life on stage with an incredible ensemble of Jazz Mafia core member including Adam Theis, Ian McArdle, Joshua Thurston-Milgrom, and Henry Plumb .

“As an organization governed by a radically embracing ethos, the Jazz Mafia is the antithesis of a criminal enterprise. A trombonist, bassist, arranger, composer and inveterate band-builder, Theis seeks to welcome all comers stylistically and demographically, while the band makes the most of whatever it has to offer. It’s a conspiracy of generosity.”
