JL Collective Presents Vol. II: Tommaso Cappellato + Michael “Tiny” Lindsey

7:00 show: Doors @ 6:00
9:15 show: Bar @ 6:00, Doors @ 8:30

In the second installment of his collaborative series, Jonah Levine brings together a unique combination of artists from across musical and geographic worlds for a one-night-only performance of newly created music.

Each edition of the series invites an out-of-town artist to join Levine in the Bay Area for a short residency of writing, recording, and sonic exploration, culminating in a live debut at Black Cat. The result is a set of original music that exists only in the moment it’s performed.

This installment features Tommaso Cappellato and Michael "Tiny" Lindsey.

Cappellato, an LA-based drummer, producer, and DJ originally from Italy, is the founder of Domanda Music and a driving force behind projects such as Collettivo Immaginario and Explorare. His work blends jazz, electronic, and global influences, and has taken him to stages and festivals around the world.

Lindsey, known as “Tiny,” is a New York–born bassist who has become a pillar of the Bay Area music community. A versatile musician with deep roots in jazz, R&B, funk, and gospel, he has performed and toured internationally with artists including John Legend, Alicia Keys, John Mayer, Boyz II Men, Common, and Jay-Z, and has appeared on major television programs such as The Tonight Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live. His playing reflects decades of experience across genres and a lifelong dedication to the craft.

Levine, a Bay Area native, spent much of his early career in Los Angeles, performing with artists such as Leon Bridges, contributing to Grammy Award–winning records, and releasing multiple albums both as a bandleader and as a member of Katalyst. Through this series, he brings together distinct musical communities, creating space for spontaneous collaboration between artists who might not otherwise share the stage.
