Chris Amberger Trio
May 3 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

The Jazz in the Alley series returns to Kerouac Alley for its fifth year, celebrating a milestone season of live music in the heart of North Beach.
Led by one of the Bay Area’s most distinguished jazz bassists, the trio delivers a set focused on the technical foundations of bebop and straight ahead jazz. Chris Amberger brings a professional history that includes tenures with jazz icons such as George Shearing, Art Blakey, and Cal Tjader. His trio is characterized by a disciplined, acoustic sound that emphasizes melodic bass lines and sophisticated rhythmic interplay.
