SUMMARY:Katy Stephan
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Stephan brings torch songs\, swing standards\, and a touch of twang to the Comstock Saloon’s polished‑but‑raucous barroom.

SUMMARY:Rotating Bands at the Lion’s Den
DESCRIPTION:Experience the resurgence of San Francisco’s historic Chinatown nightlife at the Lion’s Den.  Tucked away on Wentworth Place\, this bi-level lounge and performance space blends modern cocktail culture with the East meets West spirit of the Chinatown’s golden age. Every week\, the venue transforms into a unique destination for live music\, featuring a rotating roster of the city’s up and coming funk\, soul\, and R&B ensembles. \nThe Sound: From 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM\, the stage belongs to a curated selection of live bands. The rotation frequently features bands such as Mark Maiden\, Funky Sound Experience\, Jay Neal\, The Groove Foundation\, Baycoin Beats\, and Git With It. Whether it’s deep-pocket funk or smooth contemporary soul\, the music is designed to bridge the gap between a sophisticated lounge set and a packed dance floor. \nThe Atmosphere: The design features plush velvet banquettes\, historic photography\, and dim\, moody lighting. It is a space built for “adult” nightlife—where you can enjoy an Asian-inspired craft cocktail during the live set before the room transitions to a high-energy DJ vibe after 11:00 PM. \nThe Experience: The Lion’s Den is a rare “no cover” gem in the heart of the city\, offering world-class musicianship in an intimate\, stylish setting. It is a place to rediscover the “cool” of Chinatown while supporting the next generation of San Francisco’s musical talent. \n\nA Legacy Reclaimed\nThe Lion’s Den occupies a legendary footprint in San Francisco history. In the 1940s and 50s\, Chinatown was a global nightlife epicenter\, home to iconic clubs like the Forbidden City. The current venue at 57 Wentworth Place was once the site of Dragon A Go Go\, a 1960s hotspot that kept the neighborhood buzzing during the height of the San Francisco counterculture. After decades of relative quiet due to changing zoning laws\, the reopening of The Lion’s Den in 2021 marked the first new nightclub to open in Chinatown in nearly 40 years. Today\, it stands as a cultural bridge\, honoring the glamour of the “Harlem of the West” era while providing a vital modern stage for Asian-American artists and the local creative community.

SUMMARY:Dirty Works Jazz Jam & Burlesque Show
DESCRIPTION:The Dirty Works Jazz Band brings its signature jam session to Paris 75 every first Thursday.  Led by upright bassist Kyle Finley\, these “Dirty Works & Friends” nights transform the North Beach venue into a buzzing jazz laboratory. Far from a casual background set\, this is a professional performance environment where the house band sets a high bar before inviting local players to sit in and trade solos on the fly. \nThe only Jazz Jam to feature a burlesque dancer\, Raya\, who performs with the band from 9-10pm. \nThe repertoire is heavily inspired by the “Golden Era” of jazz (1945–1965)\, specifically the catalogs of Riverside\, Impulse\, and Blue Note records. Expect a hard-driving mix of bebop\, hard bop\, heavy swing\, and Latin jazz. \nEvery session begins with the house rhythm section—usually featuring Finley on bass alongside keys\, guitar\, and drums—anchoring the first few numbers. As the night progresses\, local jazz musicians are swapped in\, creating a dynamic\, evolving soundscape. \nUnlike “casual jam circles\,” Finley emphasizes that these nights are first and foremost a show for the audience. The band prioritizes a polished\, professional sound\, ensuring that even the most experimental improvisations remain engaging for the listeners in the room. \nPro Tip: If you’re looking to play\, ask for “the Bass dude”. \n\nAbout Kyle Finley \nKyle Finley is a San Francisco-based upright bassist and the driving force behind the Dirty Works musical collective.

SUMMARY:Chris McCarthy Quintet ft Takuya Kuroda & Eden Bareket
DESCRIPTION:Pianist Chris McCarthy and trumpeter Takuya Kuroda are two of the most innovative forces in modern jazz\, and together\, they craft a sound that is equal parts sophisticated and electrifying. McCarthy\, praised by The New York Times for his “high skill and sensitivity\,” has made a name for himself as one of New York’s most in-demand pianists\, collaborating with icons like Jerry Bergonzi and tap legend Dormeshia. His genre-blurring approach is showcased on albums like Still Time to Quit and Life’s a Gig\, and now\, he takes the stage at Black Cat with Kuroda and Bareket\, back for an epic collaboration. \nKuroda\, the Kobe-born\, Brooklyn-based trumpeter\, is a master of blending jazz with hip-hop\, neo-soul\, and funk. With eight studio albums to his name—including his latest chart-topping release\, Everyday—his music radiates groove and pure creative energy. A former Blue Note and Concord recording artist\, he has worked with legends like DJ Premier and José James\, carving out a signature sound that is cool\, soulful\, and endlessly engaging. \nExpect deep rhythms\, hypnotic melodies\, and exhilarating interplay as McCarthy and Kuroda bring their genre-defying artistry to Black Cat. This is live jazz at its most inspired. \nBand Lineup: \nChris McCarthy\, piano \nTakuya Kuroda\, trumpet \nEden Bareket\, bari sax \nSam Minaie\, bass \nSteven Crammer\, drums \n

SUMMARY:The Orphans
DESCRIPTION:The Orphans perform at the Saloon. \nJon Lawton is one of the best Folk\, Blues\, Americana singer/songwriters you’ve never heard of.
