SUMMARY:Makaya McCraven
DESCRIPTION:Drummer\, composer\, and producer Makaya McCraven returns as part of the 2025–26 cohort of SFJAZZ Resident Artistic Directors for four nights revisiting his In These Times ensemble featuring his core group\, plus strings and special guests. Each performance will vary in approach and repertoire\, recorded live and later creatively reworked for a future album release. \nIt’s not an exaggeration to say that Paris-born\, Chicago-based McCraven has powerful grooves and a passion for deep-water musical exploration in his blood. The son of free jazz luminary Stephen McCraven (Yusef Lateef\, Sam Rivers\, Archie Shepp)\, Makaya McCraven has assimilated the seemingly disparate\, yet inextricably tied\, influences of post-Coltrane jazz and hip-hop’s most experimental fringes into a unique multi-dimensional approach – a sonic signature that marries live performances with electronic manipulation and looping into a gritty\, uncompromising\, and seamless whole. \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Rudresh Mahanthappa Hero Trio
DESCRIPTION:“Jaw-dropping… one of the finest saxophonists going” (Pitchfork)\, Rudresh Mahanthappa is a visionary artist\, blending a master’s touch on the alto saxophone with an exploratory compositional voice informed by the Carnatic musical traditions of his south Indian heritage. \nMade up of longtime associates François Moutin on bass and Rudy Royston on drums\, Mahanthappa’s Hero Trio focuses not on the leader’s compositions but reimagined versions of the music that has influenced and inspired him over the years. The project’s eponymous recorded debut includes startlingly original arrangements of material ranging from Charlie Parker’s “Red Cross” and Keith Jarrett’s “The Windup” to Stevie Wonder’s “Overjoyed” and Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire.” \nInfo & Tickets
