Her two Summit Records CD’s (“Inner Urge” and “New Jazz Standards, Volume 7: The Music of Carl Saunders”) feature a Who’s Who of jazz players including Joel Frahm, John Clayton, Roy McCurdy, Josh Nelson, and Ken Peplowski. Marina’s music is enjoying widespread airplay and rave reviews across the globe. She is also a respected educator, serving on the faculty at the Conservatoire Maurice Ravel in France as well as being the voice mentor for the LA Jazz Society’s Bill Green Mentorship Program.
“It is kind of rare when you hear a vocalist who can truly fit into the category of jazz singer. Such a singer is Marina Pacowski. Pacowski has a vocal quality when singing lyrics that is a blend of Blossom Dearie and Billie Holiday. Her scatting is rangy and intelligent. There are not many debut albums by a vocalist that reach the heights of excellence that Marina Pacowski has achieved on this one.”

Here they come. That notorious nine-piece jazz band out of LA that takes classic rock staples and timeless jazz standards and rearranges them into a colorful blend of ‘Mutt-Pop’.
Led by singer Sonny Moon and featuring top SoCal session pros, the presentation is swank, quirky, irreverent retro fun. The music is a martini mix of straight-ahead, big band swing, Latin, lounge and bop, with bits and pieces of rock quotes thrown in just to see if you’re payin’ attention. And it’s a gas.
Simply put, NUTTY is classic rock, all jazzed-up. And they’re coming. Finally.
"It's pure Vegas--really good Vegas--and a good time"
- Brick Wahl, LA WEEKLY
"A cunning approach with immediate appeal"
- James Nadal, ALL ABOUT JAZZ
"A one-of-a-kind band...a blend of jazz and rock'n'roll, served up with a swinging, old school Vegas swagger"

Ventura-based instrumental groove band Matterform will be kicking off Halloween weekend by celebrating the release of their new vinyl and joined by Surge Du Monde & Lolo Zebra.
Living at the intersection of deep pocket, cosmic improvisation, and jazz harmony. Matterform draws from jazz, funk, soul, hip-hop, and dance music to build immersive instrumental journeys. Psychedelic guitar leads, wailing sax lines and floaty piano which thread through lush jazz harmonies, swirling textures, and rhythm sections that stay deep in the pocket.
Whether stretching out live or locking into tightly composed sections, the band thrives on momentum, patience, and release. It’s music for moving bodies, open minds, and listeners who appreciate groove-driven improvisation, rich harmony, and collective energy over flash. Featuring: Drew Espejo (Drums) Javi Avila (keys) Tony Pelosi (guitar) Zach Manpearl (Bass/organ) Chet Toner (saxophone/ guitar) Taylor Hopkins (bass) Rafa Langa (percussion)

Tony Ybarra Presents: Spirits of Jazz: Wes Montgomery, Legend of the Thumb
1:30pm - Doors
2pm - Show
Tickets - $15
He never took a lesson. Self-taught, playing entirely by ear, Wes Montgomery worked a day job to support his family and built one of the most influential sounds in jazz guitar history at night, off the clock, on his own terms — thumb instead of pick, warm rounded octaves that made the guitar sing. This Halloween, we raise his spirit back to the stage for one more set.

Tony Ybarra Presents: Magia Negra: Black Magic Woman, Santana Unplugged
7:30pm - Doors
8:00pm - Show
$20 - Advance
$30 - At the door
There's a reason "Black Magic Woman" has haunted Latin rock for fifty years — it doesn't just describe a spell, it casts one. As Día de los Muertos thins the veil between worlds, that same magic returns through Spanish guitars and the shadows that gather around them.
Experience the legend. Stay for the magic.
