<a href="https://www.jackcutter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.jackcutter.com/</a> Jack Cutter is a San Francisco based acoustic steel string guitarist, composer and music producer. Influenced by folk, classical, Hawaiian slack key, blues, rock, ambient and country, he melds the old with new for a meditative listen; especially mesmerizing is Cutter’s ethereal, high-pitched harmonics. He is currently performing live as a solo artist as well as recording/producing for ambient collaboration Satya Sky. Jack migrated from Buffalo, New York, in the 70s having minored in music at State University of New York at Buffalo. While at University, he played in bar bands on the side. After relocating to California, Jack went into studio engineering and became partner/owner of Razor's Edge Recording in San Francisco for 10 years, He now has his own private studio where he composes his albums. ​ In 2011, he released his first album, Into Byzantium. In 2013, he released Beyond Byzantium. ​ Fast forward to fall 2014: Jack is playing his quintessential tune, ‘Gift of Our Fathers’ when he was spotted by 40 Thieves producer Layne Fox. In the subsequent months, two of Jack’s original acoustic pieces were given the 40 Thieves treatment, and—having fallen in love with the cosmic boogie (of 40 Thieves classic ‘Backward Love’)—Jack felt he would love nothing more than to write a tune with them. This resulted in the reworking of Jack's two tracks from Into Byzantium (Serpent Strut and Gift Of Our Fathers). ​ Then, Brighton UK-based (now Berlin-based) singer and producer David Harks joined in on the Serpent Strut track to add inspired vocals to the local legend’s typically solo instrumental music. The co-written result, titled Serpent Strut (feat David Harks), melds the old with new for a meditative listen; still featuring is Cutter’s ethereal harmonics. The newly produced version of Serpent Strut and Gift Of Our Fathers was released in 2015 as a vinyl single on the UK's Claremont 56 label. ​​ In 2016, he released his third solo album In The Realm Of The Hungry Ghost. ​​ Jack continues to live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area and we are thrilled to bring him to you.

Tickets are now on sale for Redux, a celebratory exploration of chamber music which revisits themes from David and Wu Han's 24 years of leadership.As Music@Menlo entered its second decade, Johann Sebastian Bach became the ideal point of departure. By bringing Baroque music to its highest peak, Bach created a legacy that has inspired composers for centuries. This From Bach program traces that influence through works by Haydn, Mendelssohn, and Brahms, each drawing on Bach’s mastery of counterpoint and fugue. Completing the journey, John Corigliano’s poignant Fancy on a Bach Air pays tribute to Bach’s revolutionary contributions to the cello and its emergence as a solo instrument.PROGRAM Johann Sebastian Bach Three Fugues from The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I Joseph Haydn String Quartet in C Major, op. 20, no. 2, Hob.

Baxter Robertson & The CA Psychics | Blues-Rock Fusion

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.jaegerreidmusic.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.jaegerreidmusic.com/</a> Some of the best discoveries are made by accident and that's what happened in the fusion of the musical talents of Judi Jaeger and Bob Reid. They unwittingly found that perfect harmony while standing next to each other at a music camp jam in the summer of 2015. Their musical spark quickly caught fire and was noticed by those around them - and the successful collaboration between Jaeger and Reid was born. Judi grew up near Montreal, Canada, where her world was filled with music; her mother and brother sang and played guitar and she listened to Leonard Cohen, Peter, Paul &amp; Mary, Pete Seeger and many others. She began her career as a performing songwriter as an expression of her loss after the death of her mother and has written songs for her local domestic violence prevention organization. Bob is a fourth generation Californian, and like Judi, Bob also grew up surrounded by music. Bob's Mom performed in coffeehouses in the 1960's, while his father was a gospel concert promoter. Bob has been a California Arts Council Artist-in the Schools, performed at the United Nations in New York, in concert, at festivals and in schools across the United States. His original songs have been sung by Pete Seeger, Bill Harley, Cathy Fink &amp; Marcy Marxer and many others. Bob was chosen by the Seeger family to perform at memorial concerts for both Pete and Toshi Seeger in New York. Bob has a keen eye for musicality, empowerment, appreciation of nature and social causes in his writing. Jaeger &amp; Reid have been performing around the United States, in Canada and France in a variety of venues, indoors and out, including house concerts. Download our Press Kit &gt; “The love between the singer, who sings the song well, and truly, and the audience, which has been waiting for the song, and knows it when they hear it, is a true love.” — Malvina Reynolds

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.tempestmusic.com/html/caliban.html" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.tempestmusic.com/html/caliban.html</a> Lief Sorbye and Jon Berger began performing together in 1993 when Jon first joined Lief's Celtic rock band of—now worldwide renown—Tempest. When performing in a more intimate setting, they pare down to a duo and combine the rich tones of acoustic instrumentation with a good dollop of the excitement and energy that is the trademark of a Tempest show. Caliban presents a delightful, eclectic blend of music on fiddle, mandola, mando-guitar, and accordion, filling a set with spirited dance-tunes and spellbinding ballads. Their repertoire consists of Celtic and British Isles material, as well as songs from Sorbye's native Norway. Featuring tight vocal harmonies and great instrumental skills, their show has a lively feel and a contagious sense of humor.

Personal Training with Unlimited DEXA and VO2 Max

Custom Fit

Most training programs run on guesswork. Custom Fit replaces it with measurement. At its San Francisco studios, Personal Training and Partner Training memberships include unlimited DEXA body-composition scans and VO2 max testing — diagnostics usually sold one scan at a time or reserved for specialized clinics. Custom Fit members can test as often as they train. The reasoning is straightforward. A DEXA scan measures fat, lean muscle, and bone density with clinical precision. A VO2 max test measures the body's maximum oxygen uptake, one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular fitness and long-term health. Run those tests on a regular cadence and a member can see exactly what is changing, where, and whether a program is working — rather than relying on the scale or the mirror. That is the idea behind Custom Fit's positioning: not a gym, a performance lab. Every program is built from a member's measured body composition and cardiovascular capacity, then adjusted as the data moves. The goal is to eliminate the guesswork that defines most fitness routines and to treat training as something you can verify. The model also brings longevity diagnostics that usually live in concierge medicine into a routine training week. Body composition and cardiovascular capacity are central markers of how well a person is aging, and regular testing keeps those numbers visible rather than treating them as an occasional, expensive add-on. Custom Fit operates in Hayes Valley (323 Octavia Street), on Market Street (1844 Market), and with a Downtown San Francisco location on Battery Street (570 Battery) opening soon. Personal Training, Partner Training, and select memberships include the testing. More information is available at customfitsf.com.
