Special Guest

NICK ROSSI AND HIS SWING FOUR
San Francisco-based guitarist Nick Rossi leads one of the most popular vintage jazz bands in the Bay Area. Deeply influenced by Swing Era jazz of the 1930s-1940s and particularly that of Count Basie, his five-piece small combo holds down a monthly residency at the prestigious and historic Top of the Mark in the Mark Hopkins Hotel. The group features a first call roster of some of the finest musicians in the Bay Area and features tenor sax sensation Kamrin Ortiz.
