The Besos Jazz Trio has been stirring up audiences with vibrant performances of music and dance since 2017. These worldly performers are a study in balancing traditions. Together, they improvise, sing, and dance their way through an eclectic stew of swing tunes and sambas, boleros, and musettes.
Melonie Grinnell Jazz Trio | Friday, May 24, 2024

Melonie and Justin Grinnell are a dynamic piano-bass duo and married couple who have played music together since they met over 20 years ago.
They often perform music in the jazz tradition, but even when they don’t, listeners can expect to hear music infused with their interactive, improvisatory, and energetic approach.
Adding another layer of depth to their ensemble is drummer Richard Sellers, whose keen sense of musical intuition seamlessly navigates between the piano and bass. All members of the trio are also music educators proudly serving in the San Diego area.
Peter Sprague Jazz Trio | Thursday, June 6, 2024

Award-winning jazz guitarist and composer Peter Sprague teams up with pianist Danny Green and bassist Mack Leighton to play music that jumps around jazz, samba, The Beatles, tango, Carole King, Hoagy Carmichael, John Coltrane, and original songs.
It’ll be an afternoon of fun sonic fireworks and a few gentle ballads added in to help keep the roof on the venue.
