We are thrilled to do our first show together since last January.... Friday, September 4 at 7:00 pm PST, Sandy and Jeff will be joined by Murray Low, piano; David Belove, bass; and Dillon Vado, drums for a mixture of classic and contemporary Brazilian Jazz: Samba jazz, Bossa Nova, Frevo, Baião and more, thanks to Healdsburg Jazz! 

The mission of Healdsburg Jazz is to produce concerts and support musicians. Our next step during these difficult times is creating FREE live stream jazz concert series viewable in real-time around the world. Hiring musicians is crucial to their livelihood because their performance income has been on hold since mid-March. Healdsburg Jazz will present local and Bay Area bands performing live without an audience direct from the beautiful Paul Mahder Gallery.  

Make It A Friday Night Dinner Show!  

Wherever you live, sit back with a meal or your favorite libation while you enjoy our FREE live Friday Night concerts in your home.  

Order in or out to support one of your favorite local restaurants; they’ll appreciate your patronage during these stressful times.

We have just released a Music Video for the song "Não Me Acorde Não" (Please Don't Wake Me), filmed in Recife, Brazil with Spok and members of SpokFrevo Orquestra.  The song tells the story of the wonderful and surreal experience of Carnaval in Recife that Sandy and Jeff experienced in 2015.  Spok arranged Sandy's composition, and in 2016, she returned to Recife to record the song for the "Entre Amigos" CD; and in February 2017, Sandy, Jeff and Natalie went to Recife to perform as part of a project "Do Jazz ao Frevo" (From Jazz to Frevo), performing with Spok and his musicians, and filming the video.  Click on "Não Me Acorde Não" to see the video (and it is also on our Photos/Video page).
