This week’s four San Diego concerts that only a nattering nabob of negativism would miss (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 2024, England’s Shabaka Hutchings — one of the jazz-and-way-beyond world’s most acclaimed tenor saxophonists of his generation — decided to put aside his tenor sax and focus on playing the flute and the Japanese shakuhachi. This move came two years after he dropped Hutchings and began performing and recording as simply Shabaka. Turning away from saxophone was a bold and unexpected move from this visionary young artist, who had forged a distinctive creative path as the mastermind of Sons of Ke

It may be a bit too early to be thinking about holiday presents, but here’s one dream gift idea for music fans here in search of a special aural treat: Can Robert Plant and his band, Saving Grace, featuring Suzi Dian, make their San Diego-area performances an annual affair?

That’s a distinction he shares with drum drynamo Brian Blade, with whom he performed in the saxophone giant Wayne Shorter’s quartet for 23 years.
