Description
Keiko Matsui is an icon of contemporary jazz. With packed concert halls and more than a million units sold in the U.S. alone, she is one of the most recognized artists in the genre. Her elegant piano melodies and gentle jazz grooves have enormous appeal and never disappoint her loyal fan base, which she has cultivated with over a dozen albums (beginning with 1987’s A Drop of Water) and stunning live shows. Matsui frequently uses her music for philanthropic purposes, having raised money for breast cancer awareness, bone marrow donation, and world hunger. Now she brings her signature sophisticated jazz style to Yoshi’s Oakland for two special evenings and—in her debut—Yoshi’s San Francisco for four. (With Gary Melvin, guitar; Jackiem Joyner, saxophone; Eric Baines, bass; Chad Wright, drums; Steve Reid, percussion.)
