SUMMARY:The Unauthorized Rolling Stones
DESCRIPTION:Rudy Colombini and The Unauthorized Rolling Stones bring 25 years of full-throttle rock ‘n’ roll to the Main Stage at Broadway & Columbus\, delivering the raw power\, danger\, and electricity that define a true Rolling Stones concert experience. At the center is frontman Rudy Colombini — a performer with explosive charisma and total command of the stage who doesn’t imitate the Stones so much as inhabit them\, honed by decades of deep study of the band’s live performances. Having shared stages with Elton John\, Journey\, Train\, and Chaka Khan over a quarter century of worldwide shows\, this is as close to the real deal as rock & roll gets.

SUMMARY:The Don Robinson Trio
DESCRIPTION:The Don Robinson Trio brings decades of fearless musical exploration to the Makers Stage at Filbert & Grant\, led by Oakland-based jazz musician Donald Robinson — an intrepid and longstanding figure of the San Francisco Bay Area avant-garde jazz scene whose concept was forged in 1970s Paris studying bebop with pioneer Kenny Clarke and sharpened through collaboration with Cecil Taylor\, Glenn Spearman\, and the Rova Sax Quartet. A long-time student of Chuck Brown and a ground-breaker since the 1970s in Cleveland and Berkeley\, Robinson has spent his career melding funk and improvisational jazz into something utterly his own. His roll call of collaborators — from saxophonists John Tchicai\, Marco Eneidi\, and Larry Ochs to koto player Miya Masaoka and pianist Matthew Goodheart — speaks to a musician who has spent a lifetime pushing at the edges of what jazz can be.

SUMMARY:Il Funk ky Shu’s Wit Nu Soles

Led by the deep\, rhythmic grooves of Shepard on bass and the commanding\, soulful vocals of Tambora\, the band is celebrated for their all-killer\, no-filler sets. Their mission is simple: to make the audience boogie with a mix of timeless classics and high-octane originals. \nSoulful Repertoire: Their sets are a masterclass in the Great American Soulbook\, featuring hit covers ranging from the Jackson 5’s “ABC” to modern anthems like “Uptown Funk” and “Get Lucky.” They specialize in bringing a legitimate band feel to every cover\, infused with their own improvisational flair. \nThe “Nu Soles” Sound: The band typically features a lush\, full sound powered by a tight rhythm section and a vibrant horn line—including trumpet\, tenor sax\, and trombone—creating a Wall of Sound that is impossible to sit still to. \nGlobal Influence\, Local Roots: After years of performing abroad\, the group returned to San Francisco to reclaim their status as neighborhood favorites. They are frequent headliners for North Beach First Fridays\, often performing high-energy sets that turn Grant Avenue into an open-air dance floor. \nNo Cover Groove: At venues like Tupelo\, their Saturday night residencies are usually free to the public\, offering world-class musicianship without a cover charge—though tipping the band for their marathon 3-hour sets is highly encouraged.

SUMMARY:Jules Broussard
DESCRIPTION:Louisiana-born living legend Jules Broussard has been blowing away Bay Area audiences with his double-saxophone serenades and soulful solos for over 60 years\, sharing stages and studios with Alice Coltrane\, Van Morrison\, and Carlos Santana across an 88-year life well lived in music. At the Green & Columbus Stage\, Broussard brings his freshly minted New Orleans Jazz Band — Bay Area jazz veterans Ned Boynton on guitar\, Kevin Gerzevitz on piano/keys\, Bob Blankenship on drums\, and Derek Evans on vocals — fresh off residencies in North Beach and Fairfax. It’s rare to catch this much living history in an open-air festival setting\, but this is your lucky afternoon in the heart of North Beach.

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:Howell Devine
DESCRIPTION:Howell Devine bring their hypnotic Hill Country and Delta Blues to the Main Stage at Broadway & Columbus\, a trio whose rollicking\, deeply rhythmic take on rural blues stands in stark contrast to anything else on the festival circuit today — a sound distinctive enough to make them the first blues act signed to the legendary Arhoolie Records by founder Chris Strachwitz in over 25 years. At the heart of the band is triple-threat Joshua Howell — guitarist\, harmonica player\, vocalist\, and co-founder of the Howell & Forsyth Guitar Company — whose deep roots in the techniques of Mississippi greats like Fred McDowell\, Bukka White\, Robert Johnson\, and RL Burnside shape every note he plays. Veteran upright bassist Joe Kyle Jr.\, who has shared stages with Emmylou Harris\, Elvis Costello\, Gillian Welch\, and Bela Fleck among many others\, joins drummer J. Hansen to complete a trio that mixes rural blues with wildly syncopated rhythms into something propulsive\, alive\, and utterly unforgettable.

SUMMARY:Jose Simioni Trio
DESCRIPTION:The Jose Simioni Trio brings a singular\, deeply personal sound to the Makers Stage at Filbert & Grant\, led by a North Beach fixture for over two decades — a self-taught master whose sophisticated\, gritty blend of jazz\, blues\, and rock defies easy categorization. Influenced by everyone from Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton to jazz greats Joe Pass and Jim Hall\, Simioni has synthesized these icons into a voice entirely his own\, moving seamlessly from floating\, lazy melodies to a rocking\, soulful growl that only a veteran of the Grant Avenue circuit can deliver. Originally arriving in San Francisco from Washington D.C. with nothing but a guitar\, an amp\, and a sleeping bag\, Simioni has since become a living cornerstone of the city’s blues and jazz tradition — and an afternoon with his trio is nothing short of a masterclass in musical identity.
