Never been to one?
The best date night you haven't tried.
A smooth jazz show is two hours of great music at a volume you can still talk over, in a room full of grown folks who like to have fun. Wineries and summer amphitheaters are the classic setting: bring a blanket, share a bottle, stay for the encore.
Skeptical? Fair.
People expect elevator music and get a band that grooves. Sax players walk the aisles. Guitarists trade solos. By the second song the crowd is on its feet. I've made a fool of myself on more than one dance floor and regretted none of it.
You already know the songs.
If you listen to the station, you'll recognize half the set list. Hearing "East Bay Bounce" or "Coastin'" played live, ten feet away, is a different thing entirely. Tap an artist's name here to see what we've played of theirs before you go.
