Corinne Bailey Rae
by Josh James
February 21, 2022
From Leeds, England, singer/songwriter/musician Corinne Bailey Rae shot to stardom with her self-titled #1 UK debut album in 2006, featuring the global hits “Put Your Records On” and “Like A Star.” She has received two GRAMMY® Awards, two MOBOS, alongside multiple nominations, including BRIT and BET Awards. Her third studio album, The Heart Speaks In Whispers, was declared “the best R&B of 2016” (The Guardian), and featured the stunning “Green Aphrodisiac” named “10 best R&B songs of 2016” (Billboard) and selected by President Obama for his summer playlist. Her 2017 worldwide tour highlights included New Orleans Jazz Fest, Playboy Jazz Fest (Hollywood Bowl), Singapore Jazz Fest, Glastonbury, and a special guest appearance for Stevie Wonder’s BST Hyde Park London concert.
Bailey Rae has recently composed music for film and television, including the theme to Stan Lee’s Lucky Man (SKY1). She recorded “The Scientist” for Universal Pictures’ Fifty Shades Darker opening title and soundtrack, which charted globally. This year, she performed a duet with Richard Hawley in eOne’s BIFA nominated film for Best Music, Funny Cow. Bailey Rae continues to collaborate and perform with artists across musical genres, including Mary J Blige, Al Green, Herbie Hancock, KING, Paul McCartney, Kele Okereke (Bloc Party), Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Questlove, Salaam Rami, RZA, Tyler The Creator, Paul Weller, Stevie Wonder, Tracey Thorn, Logic, Mick Jenkins, and many more!
American singer-songwriter Jensen McRae, a bi-racial, black and Jewish woman growing up in predominantly white spaces, explores all aspects of identity in her music – from race and gender, to issues of depression and unrequited love. The LA native has earned praise from Wonderland, Vulture, Fader, was named NPR Slingshot’s 2021 Artists To Watch, and KCRW’s favorite new artists of 2020. McRae released her debut EP in June of 2021, which peaked at #2 on the iTunes Singer-Songwriter charts just under Joni Mitchell.

Emmy Award Winning Spanish Guitar and Dance Spectacular!
Hailed internationally as the Prince of Spanish Guitar, and one of the greatest nouveau flamenco guitarists in the world today; Benise single-handedly shattered the mold of Spanish guitar by combining guitar and dance!
The Emmy award winning show returns with a new production Spanish Nights – Featuring the passion and grace of Flamenco combined with fiery Spanish guitar. Backed by a stage full of musicians and elaborately choreographed dancers, Benise takes the audience on a musical journey through Spanish Flamenco, Cuban Salsa, Brazilian Samba, Parisian Waltz, exotic drumming, and more!
‘The Prince of Spanish Guitar’ – Dancing With The Stars
‘Bennissimo!’ – Chicago News
‘Extreme Flamenco Fusion’ – Screen India
Spanish Nights showcases classic Rock anthems from Led Zeppelin and AC/DC and fuses them with Spanish guitar and dance to bring a fierce intensity to these new interpretations. In addition, Benise adds his signature touch to classics such as “Ave Maria, “Moonlight Sonata,” “Clair de Lune,” and Vivaldi’s “Summer” from The Four Seasons.
For Benise, music has always been a journey. From his humble beginnings as a street performer, to being featured on the #1 rated show in the USA – Dancing With The Stars, and performing around the world. “I wanted to push the boundaries of Nuevo Flamenco/Spanish guitar while combining the elements of dance and theater. This show is a celebration of all the shows we’ve done over the last 20 years,” comments composer, virtuoso guitarist and creative force behind the event, Benise.

The Emmy Award-winning composer along with an international cast of musicians and dancers will entertain audiences with a two-hour show that “is an escape from all their problems,” Benise says. “Much like the recent PBS special, with this show I want to take the audience on an escape to Spain…to a beautiful Spanish courtyard filled with Flamenco dancers, stunning costumes, and fiery Spanish guitars.BENISE adds, “This is a great show for the whole family; I really think we have something for everyone. I hope people will be inspired by our story, by the music, by the production–and have the passion to follow their own dreams. I have always been a gypsy and love to travel, my heritage is Bohemian (from Prague), so I think it’s in my blood. I can’t wait to go to new cities, meet new people, and play every night–it’s what I live for.”
The apprentice company to State Street Ballet, State Street Ballet Young Dancers will perform new and innovative works, in addition to classical and emerging choreography.

Tous les matins du monde (All the Mornings of the World)
by Gina Graham
January 28, 2022
Jordi Savall is one of the most gifted and prolific musicians of our times. For more than 50 years, his career as a master of the viola da gamba, and as a researcher and recording artist has made him one of the principal architects of the ongoing revaluation of early music—rescuing historical musical gems from obscurity, and creating a world of musical emotion and beauty shared with millions of early music enthusiasts around the world.
Among the biggest surprises of Jordi Savall’s storied career was the international blockbuster success of his soundtrack for the award winning 1991 French film Tous les matins du monde (All the Mornings of the World). In the dazzling cinematic tradition of Amadeus, Tous les matins du monde is one of the most celebrated films ever to explore the art of music—a provocative work of historical fiction set in 17th century France during the reign of Louis XIV. Legendary actor Gerard Depardieu portrays the eminent elder French composer Marin Marais looking back at his young life when he was briefly a pupil of the reclusive bass viol master Monsieur de Sainte Colombe who lived a secluded life with his two daughters, and whose lives are forever changed by the vivacious young Marais. This profound film was winner of seven French César Awards including Best Picture and Best Soundtrack (for Jordi Savall who created the awarding winning musical soundtrack).
The Santa Barbara music and film community is invited to the Lobero Theatre on Sunday afternoon February 20 at 3:00PM for a Free Screening of Tous les matins du monde (All the Mornings of the World).The film will be screened as a cinematic preview for the upcoming concert by Jordi Savall and Le Concert des Nations, appearing Wednesday, March 2 at 7:30PM to launch CAMA’s 2022 Masterseries season. The concert features a full program of music from Tous les matins du monde, including works by Marin Marais, Monsieur de Sainte Colombe, François Couperin, and Jean Baptiste Lully.

Lindsey Buckingham is one of the most inventive and electrifying musicians of his generation. His instinct for melody and his singular fingerpicking guitar style are showcased on the seven studio and three live albums he has released as a solo artist, beginning with 1981’s Law and Order and continuing through 2021’s Lindsey Buckingham, his first solo release since 2011’s Seeds We Sow. Entertainment Weekly called the new album “a California pop-rock meditation that draws on his Golden State roots and probes what Buckingham knows best: the intricacies of relationships” and named it one of the year’s 10 best, while Newsweek hailed it for featuring “all the recognizable elements of his sound: melodic hooks, intricate production, multilayered vocals, and shimmering guitar.” Buckingham debuted the new material on a 2021 North American tour, during which Glide praised his live guitar playing as “captivating and flawless.”
Over the last four decades, Buckingham has developed a radical sense of experimentation and an unrivaled savvy as a producer, skills he first honed as a singer, guitarist, songwriter, producer, and the musical visionary of Fleetwood Mac, where he wrote and produced several Top Ten hits, including “Go Your Own Way” and “Big Love.” Under Buckingham’s direction, Fleetwood Mac became one of the best-selling and most beloved rock groups of all time. As a solo artist, Buckingham often plays nearly every instrument himself; his complex arrangements and inventive production choices make his solo work thrilling to experience. In 2020, he appeared on The Killers’ single “Caution” and last year joined Halsey to perform her single ‘’Darling’’ on “Saturday Night Live.” He remains a highly sought-after collaborator, a maverick, and a visionary

Artist Residency presented in partnership with The Santa Barbara Symphony
The Marcus Roberts Trio – a long-term musical partnership between pianist, Marcus Roberts, the phenomenal drummer Jason Marsalis, and gifted bassist Rodney Jordan
The Marcus Roberts Trio is known for its virtuosic style and entirely new approach to jazz trio performance. While most jazz trios have the piano front and center, all members of the Marcus Roberts Trio share equally in shaping the direction of the music by changing its tempo, mood, texture, or form at any time. And they do this with lightning quick musical reflexes and creative imagination. The trio is known for having almost telepathic communication on the stage. And more than a few concert goers have been heard to say that it sounds like a lot more than three people up there on the stage!
“One way Roberts individualizes his sound is by utilizing orchestral devices initially borrowed from the Ahmad Jamal Trio. In the course of a single piece, he constantly modulates grooves, tempos and keys, plays separate time signatures with the right hand and the left, and, as he puts it, “flips around the roles of the piano, bass and drums by giving everyone an equal opportunity to develop the concepts and themes, to change the form, to get us where we’re getting ready to go.” Ted Panken, Jazziz Magazine
Added to the logic and balanced trio style of Ahmad Jamal, is the swing and virtuosity of the Oscar Peterson Trio, combined with the buoyant joyous sound of Erroll Garner. These influences provide a rich foundation for the ever evolving and expanding sound of the Marcus Roberts Trio. The musical cues combine with musical inspiration from all over the world, which guarantees that audiences never know where this trio is heading; influences from Africa, Europe, and South America are combined with American traditions to give this group an infinite palate of styles, timbres and colors to draw from.
Don’t miss additional performances of the Marcus Roberts Trio in “Riffing on Gershwin” – playing the music of George Gershwin and Florence Price with the Santa Barbara Symphony on May 21st and 22nd at the Granada Theatre. Tickets available now

The Philadelphia-based group, which consists of six veteran musicians, delivers a high energy Zeppelin concert with an honest, heart-thumping intensity. Performing blues-soaked, groove-driven rock anthems with passion and fury, the band has amassed a strong national touring history. From the bombastic and epic, to the folky and mystical, Get The Led Out (GTLO) have captured the essence of the recorded music of Led Zeppelin and brought it to the concert stage. Utilizing the multi-instrumentalists at their disposal, GTLO re-create the songs in all their depth and glory with the studio overdubs that Zeppelin themselves never performed. Dubbed by the media as “The American Led Zeppelin,” Get The Led Out offers a strong focus on the early years. They also touch on the deeper cuts that were seldom, if ever heard in concert. GTLO also include a special “acoustic set” with Zep favorites such as “Tangerine” and “Hey Hey What Can I Do.”
