Last week, San Francisco's gypsy jazz group Gaucho invited out the NYC phenomenon vocalist Tamar Korn to join them on stage. As if that wasn't enough, local trumpet legend Leon Oakley was also sitting in.
Thankfully, I keep my iPhone 3GS in a quick-draw holster just for filming moments like this. Dig Petey Devine's epic FACE SOLO at 3:00 in:
Gaucho has been playing at Amnesia in SF's historic mission district every Wednesday from 8-10pm for over 5 years. The show really is the hippest thing going on in the neighborhood and you should definitely make it a stop if you find yourself visiting San Francisco. Expect a crowded mess of rowdy fans and a generous helping of pretty girls dancing the Charleston up front.
Tamar Korn sings with her own group, the Cangelosi Cards, all over NYC's east village and Brooklyn every week. Over this past weekend she took part in the recording of Gaucho's upcoming album of original songs, which will be put out by Porto Franco Records.
