Jacob Wendt Group

The Sound Room is aptly named. The focus is on the sound or the music. Unlike clubs where the performance may be peripheral to the experience, at the Sound Room the performance is the experience.  We are an all-ages listening room. We exist to present great music and promote jazz as an art form.The Sound Room is the home of Bay Area Jazz & Arts, a  501(c)3 non-profit organization focused on promoting the Arts.

Bay Area Jazz & Arts at The Sound Room

An evening of classic Blue Note Jazz from a Rising Star

The Sound Room

WENDT has a unique sound; balanced, supportive, and interactive, with a driving energy that serves the music while leaving space for others to speak — he is an authoritative yet never intrusive player. Originally from Sonoma County, his original ensembles have headlined major venues across Northern and Southern California. To date he has released one album as a leader (Jacob Wendt Quartet, 2011), another as co-leader (Carter-White-Wendt, 2013), and a collection of original compositions (Jacob Wendt Sextet: Live at the Blue Whale, 2020). His critically acclaimed new album, Silver Street (Hayden Records) is a classic hardbop quintet project in the spirit of Blue Note Records during the 1950’s &amp; 60’s. Already dubed "an instant jazz classic," the album features all original compositions by Wendt, influenced by jazz greats such as Horace Silver, Sonny Clark, Lee Morgan, Wayne Shorter, and Hank Mobley.Personnel:Jacob Wendt — drums &amp; compositions. Mike Olmos — trumpet.Bob Kenmostu— tenor sax. Matt Clark — piano. David Ewell — bass
