We say goodbye to the incomparable Bill Withers, who gifted us with timeless songs like "Use Me", "Ain't No Sunshine", "Lean On Me" and "Lovely Day." Bill visited the Newport Beach Jazz Festival in 2012 to hang with friends including Gerald Albright, Larry Graham, Pat Prescott and Mindi Abair. Rest in paradise, Bill.

We can all use some sunshine in our lives, so here's Avery*Sunshine right in her own living room.

In these uncertain times, our 2020 Newport Beach Jazz Festival artists are taking the stage in their own homes to share their music with our jazz, soul, and R&B fans! We encourage our supporters to tune into livestream concerts on Facebook and Instagram for everything from Avery*Sunshine's "Live from the Crib" Facebook concert tonight at 5:00 p.m. PST/8:00 p.m. EST and Mindi Abair's "Wine + Music Sessions" on Facebook Live every Tuesday at 5:00 p.m. PST/8:00 p.m. EST, to Jazmin Ghent's "Smile Dedications," on Instagram, in which she shares her favorite songs...and takes requests!
