SUMMARY:Magic School Busk
DESCRIPTION:Experience the ultimate “living theater” of North Beach as The Magic School Busk takes up their weekly residency directly in front of The Red Window. Positioned at the vibrant\, sun-soaked corner of Stockton and Columbus\, this high-energy busking collective captures the spontaneous spirit of the neighborhood. \nThe performance is a masterclass in Street Swing and improvisational Jazz. Drawing from the “busking” tradition of New Orleans and the European “Hot Club” sound\, the ensemble specializes in acoustic music that is both technically brilliant and completely unpretentious. The line-up is fluid\, often featuring a “who’s who” of local instrumentalists who bring a “restless melodicism” to classic standards and upbeat\, toe-tapping originals. \nThe Magic School Busk is more than just a band; they are the neighborhood’s “resident joy-makers.” Because they perform on the street level\, the barrier between musician and audience disappears\, inviting passersby to stop\, dance\, and engage with the music in real-time. Whether you are enjoying a gin tonic on the Red Window’s outdoor patio or just walking by with a cannoli in hand\, the band provides an elite\, soulful soundtrack that defines the modern North Beach experience. \n\nAbout The Magic School Busk\nBorn from the city’s post-pandemic “street-side” revival\, The Magic School Busk is a collective of veteran Bay Area musicians dedicated to the art of public performance. They emphasize the “acoustic and the authentic\,” eschewing heavy amplification for the natural resonance of brass\, strings\, and woodwinds. Often featuring members from some of the city’s most popular jazz and swing outfits\, the “Busk” is celebrated for its ability to read a crowd and create a party out of thin air. They represent the best of San Francisco’s musical resilience—keeping the city’s culture loud\, proud\, and accessible to everyone on the street. \n

SUMMARY:CANCELLED!  Jules Broussard’s New Orleans Jazz Band
DESCRIPTION:The legendary Jules Broussard brings the spirit of New Orleans to the heart of North Beach with a bi-weekly residency at the Savoy Tivoli. Taking place every other Saturday from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM\, this “Legacy Jazz” series offers a rare opportunity to see a living master perform in one of the neighborhood’s most historic venues. These afternoon sessions are known for their relaxed yet electric atmosphere\, drawing a devoted crowd of jazz aficionados and curious passersby alike. \nWhile Broussard has been a Bay Area fixture for decades\, his roots are in Marksville\, Louisiana. His “New Orleans Jazz Band” highlights this heritage\, blending classic NOLA syncopation with the sophisticated improvisational style that has made him a global name. \n\nJules Broussard is a saxophone virtuoso whose career spans over seven decades. Born in 1937\, he began organizing bands in Louisiana at the age of twelve before serving in the U.S. Air Force and eventually settling in San Francisco. He has shared the stage and studio with some of the most iconic names in music history\, including: Ray Charles\, Carlos Santana\, Van Morrison\, Boz Scaggs\, and Elvin Bishop. \nHonored with the San Francisco Cabaret Gold Award for “Outstanding Jazz Musician” and a BAMMIE for “Best Reed Player\,” Broussard is a cornerstone of the West Coast jazz scene. Once voted by the San Francisco Examiner as “Reason #11 out of 96 to be in San Francisco\,” he continues to perform with a passion and mastery that captivates every generation of music lover.

SUMMARY:Suzanna Smith
DESCRIPTION:Returning to Keys Jazz Bistro\, Suzanna Smith fronts another stellar ensemble to work her magic around the Peggy Lee songbook. “There are relatively few contemporary female vocalists who evoke Peggy Lee\, at least not genuinely. Suzanna Smith numbers among that rare ilk. That Smith sounds like Lee — slightly breathy and warmly sensual with a hint of huskiness — is undeniable\, but the parallels extend much further. Lee’s ability to not just caress a ballad but smother it in mink has seldom been matched. She was also a sage swinger — never too much\, never too little — as well as a first-rate songwriter. Smith checks all those boxes.” \n— Christopher Louden\, Jazz Times
