RECAP: Rosanne Cash + 'Mingus Ah Um' Hotplate at SFJAZZ Center


Rosanne Cash opened her 4-night run at SFJAZZ Center last night, telling deep, lyrical stories inspired by her travels in the South, complete with projected photography (see below). She's back on tonight, and sold out all weekend long!


Meanwhile, Adam Theis & Subharmonic gave Mingus Ah Um the Hotplate treatment in Joe Henderson Lab, without a doubt one of the most ambitious shows in this monthly series we've heard yet!



See more pics on SFJAZZ Flickr. Don't miss Adam Theis' special Solo Sacred Space concert at Church of the Advent (across the street from the Center), part of the 32nd San Francisco Jazz Festival! For more music inspired by the South, check out Resident Artistic Director Regina Carter's upcoming Southern Comfort.

Rosanne has a wonderful way of weaving her music and commentary into an intimate musical portrait of her life. While never a Country fan, her southern themes enriched my musical education and her voice was pure and moving. The band was soulful, loved the guitars.Thanks for the treat!
