San Francisco jazz trumpet maestro and composer Jeff Bordes joins wine country star Meredith McHenry for a night of jazz, soul, and the kind of heart-stirring, stylistic blend that only these two can offer. Jeff Bordes has toured internationally, sharing stages and recording with artists ranging from Tom Petty to Dizzie Gillespie, Stevie Nicks to Jon Faddis, Sugarhill Gang to Sheryl Crow, but tonight he’s on his home turf for this intimate performance.
