Over the years, as an antidote to all the sappy, sentimental Christmas tunes we're all inundated with every Holiday Season, Maria Muldaur has collected some wonderfully hip, swinging, humorous and irreverent Christmas songs by her favorite Jazz & Blues artists.

Maria & her Jazzabelle Quintet, an "A Team" of the Bay Area's finest jazz players, come back to The Back Room with their special "Holiday Swing" show, for a fun afternoon of what Maria calls, "Xmas Tunes for Hipsters." No sappy, overdone, pedestrian Christmas tunes here, folks. Only her special collection of rare gems! Last year this fun show sold out quickly, and a festive, fabulous time was had by all, so grab your tickets early and don't miss this Holiday event!

Featuring:
Danny Caron – guitar
Ruthie Davies – bass
John R. Burr – piano
Kristin Strom – horns
Paul Revelli – drums

Tickets are $35 general admission. Children under 12 are free. Advance tickets are available here, or if the show is not sold out, you may purchase your tickets at the door before the show.
