Amanda Addleman is a New York City–based, San Francisco–raised vocalist, pianist, composer, arranger, and educator.
For this special concert, she will present a collection of pieces that explore the fusion of her two worlds: firm Bay Area roots and a growing presence in New York City. She brings a rooted yet unmistakably modern voice to the jazz landscape, grounded in a sincere reverence for the great jazz traditions of the last century. Her interpretations of the canon are purposeful and exciting, imbued with nuance and a sense of discovery that keeps familiar standards feeling fresh and personal.
As a composer and arranger, she expands the music with original works and jazz-hued interpretations that draw seamlessly from contemporary folk, R&amp;B, and pop. The result is a sound that feels both sophisticated and accessible, without ever losing its center. Addleman’s musical identity is cohesive, expressive, and forward-looking, honoring the past while confidently shaping her own place within it.
Addleman holds a Master’s degree from Manhattan School of Music and a Bachelor’s degree from Berklee College of Music. She is currently on faculty at Long Island University’s Roc Nation School of Music, as well as the Manhattan School of Music Precollege Division.
Her most recent release, Into the Light, is a collection of pieces that contrast the light and dark moments of her life and career. It has received praise from critics and musicians alike and is available on streaming services.

Black Cat Jazz Supper Club 400 Eddy St San Francisco, CA 94109

David Kikoski is a Grammy-nominated jazz pianist known for his virtuosic technique, versatility, and innovative approach. With over three decades of performing and recording, he has collaborated with jazz legends including Roy Haynes, the Brecker Brothers, Pat Metheny, Chris Potter, and the Charles Mingus Big Band, establishing himself as a sought-after presence on the global jazz scene. Blending bebop, post-bop, and contemporary jazz, Kikoski’s dynamic, spontaneous, and deeply swinging style continues to inspire audiences worldwide.
Dave and Smitty were contemporaries at Berklee College of Music in Boston in the early 1980s, and Ralph was already active on the Boston scene at the time, so Dave played with both Ralph and Smitty during those years.
Dave and Ralph later crossed paths again through Roy Haynes' band and recorded together in the late 1980s. Although their paths diverged for many years, they renewed their collaboration in 2025 with a month-long European tour, followed by a new recording project and performances in Northern California and British Columbia in early 2026. Dave and Smitty also reunited on vibraphonist John Locke's 1993 recording Wire Walker
When plans for the Black Cat residency came together, Dave reached out to Ralph, and the two of them invited Smitty to revisit those longstanding musical connections. Rob, from a younger generation and active on the Los Angeles scene, came highly recommended by Ralph.

Are there hidden accessibility barriers on your website?

Accessibility in Practice

Does your website look great but people still drop off before buying, booking, or signing up? Most small business owners don’t realize accessibility might be the reason. Your site might “pass” an automated scan or look fine visually, but still be impossible to use for people navigating by keyboard, screen reader, or other assistive tech. Automated tools don’t test whether someone can actually fill out a form, complete a purchase, book a service, or make a donation. That’s where accessibility issues tend to hide. In fact, WebAIM’s 2025 Million report found that 94.8% of the top 1,000,000 home pages had detectable Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) failures. That’s where I come in. I run hands-on accessibility reviews that go beyond automated tools. I test your site like a real user would and translate the findings into clear, prioritized fixes you can implement or hand to your developer or designer. Ways to work together: 1. Full Website Accessibility Audit (deep review across your site) 2. Homepage-Only Mini Audit (fast check of your most-visited page) 3. PDF Accessibility Conversion (make PDFs usable with screen readers) 4. Alt Text Writing Packages (product photos, homepage images, posts) 5. Email Signature Accessibility Review (fix a common, overlooked barrier) 6. Social Media Accessibility Quick Review (graphics, captions, links, video basics) and more! What you’ll get (always): 1. Plain-language results 2. A prioritized fix list 3. Practical guidance you can use right away Our approach Transparent pricing • Fast turnaround • WCAG-aligned • ADA/Section 508–informed • Bay Area + remote clients If your site is hard to use, it’s hard to grow. Prioritizing accessibility helps more people access your content, services, and opportunities. contact@accessibilityinpractice.com

Free 20-Minute Photo Coaching Session with Camera or Lens

Looking Glass Photographic Outfitters

Here in Berkeley, Looking Glass Photo is where gear, guidance, and community come together—since 1971. We’re a boutique-style camera shop that outfits photographers with exactly what they need and nothing they don’t. That means real conversations, hands-on help, and curated solutions across top brands like Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Sony and more. We carry new gear, offer a thoughtful selection of preowned and consignment cameras and lenses, and place special orders when the perfect fit isn’t on the shelf. Learning is at the heart of what we do. Join our small-group classes and workshops, sign up for photo adventures in the wild (from tide pools to elk rut season), or dig into image reviews and practical technique sessions. Our Rentals program makes it easy to test drive the latest bodies, lenses, lighting and accessories—perfect for a weekend project or a big assignment—while our “Try Before You Buy” and paid Gear Outfitting service help you make confident choices. What makes us unique? Personalized coaching before and after a purchase, community-driven events (including our Photo Friends network), and a values-driven approach that puts longevity and stewardship first. We stand behind the gear we sell, keep darkroom and printing essentials flowing, and cheer on your growth every step of the way. Whether you’re brand-new to photography or a seasoned pro, Looking Glass is your trusted partner for classes, adventures, rentals, consignment and used gear, and a welcoming community that lifts each other up.
