WHO:

Come see Craig Browning play jazz on the Hammond Organ as few can.  And listen to Jeff Tauber play the classics,  from Gershwin to Porter, on Tenor and Soprano Saxes. Accompanied by Kevin Blackmon on drums.  According to Tauber, “We’ve been playing as an Organ/Sax based combo since 2016. There are no other Hammond Organ/Saxophone based jazz bands playing gigs in the Bay area anymore (if you’ve ever tried to move a 400 pound Hammond organ from gig to gig, you know why). Craig and I play the ‘Great American Songbook’.”

Music Double Header in Downtown Pt. Richmond Tonight!

Pt. Richmond Summer Concert!

WHEN: Friday, September 14, 5:30-7:45pm

Achilles Wheel

WHERE: Corner of Park Place and Washington Ave in Pt. Richmond

WHO:

5:30p – 6:30p Achilles Wheel  – Music: High-Energy Roots, World & Rock & Roll

  • “Their sound comes across as both Old School and New School and is riddled with great songwriting. The one thing that rises to the surface as you get to know this band is that supporting the benefit of our human condition is foremost in their work. They play hard as a way to break down walls and celebrate life. The idealism that they embraced as younger men has not diminished in the harsh light of the modern world as we struggle to live freely and have a good time, and in the end, hopefully matter. Achilles Wheel fearlessly sings out to these times.” Achilles Wheel website

Take a listen

6:45p – 7:45p Ruckatan Latin Tribe – Music: Latin, Reggae, Caribbean

Ruckatan Latin Tribe

  • Rúckatan Latin Tribe is composed of seven players who have all contributed to the local Latin Rock scene in the Bay Area and internationally with various Latin, Reggae and Rock acts. Rúckatan is a fusion of Latin and Reggae.
