If you're in the mood for excellent and sophisticated jazz, know that anything connected to the Redwood Jazz Alliance is the real deal. RJA's spring season continues with rising star bassist
Linda Oh at 8 p.m. in HSU's Fulkerson Recital Hall.
All About Jazz calls Oh's latest work,
Sun Pictures, "an album of achingly fragile beauty." The touring version of
Sun Pictures features
Ben Wendel (of Kneebody) on sax,
Matt Stevens on guitar and
Justin Brown on drums. It's $15, $10 for students.
The jazz theme continues with a Redwood Coast Jazz Festival performance by
Tommy Castro And The Painkillers — okay, so it's not exactly jazz since Castro is famed for his signature brand of modern day rocking rhythm and blues, but the gig is part of the jazz fest, so do with that what you will. This show happens in the sweet confines of the Eureka Theater at 4:30 p.m., tickets are $25 to $85 and a full lineup is available at
redwoodjazz.org and in the
Journal's Calendar section.
