Jazz Mafia play Stevie Wonder

In the year 2000, trombonist, bassist, composer, arranger, and producer Adam Theis co-founded Jazz Mafia – an eclectic artist collective of forward-thinking and accomplished players in Electro, Hip-Hop, World, Classical, and Jazz. Twenty years in the making, Jazz Mafia is a prolific staple of the quintessential San Francisco sound, uniting creative and accomplished Bay Area instrumentalists, vocalists, MCs, composers, and arrangers.

For this event, the Jazz Mafia will play music celebrating Stevie Wonder. Wonder is an American singer, songwriter, musician, and record producer. A musical pioneer who has drawn inspiration from jazz and reggae, Wonder is considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. He has won 25 Grammy Awards, including a lifetime achievement award, and an Academy Award for Best Original Song for “I Just Called to Say I Love You” from the 1984 film The Woman in Red.
