Jazz Mafia: The Beatles Reimagined with Otis McDonald

Jazz that is creative & always fresh

Following their sold-out Stevie Wonder Reimagined and Prince Reimagined shows, Jazz Mafia returns with a new project exploring the music of The Beatles through a modern lens. Helmed by multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Otis McDonald and featuring Jazz Mafia’s core acoustic ensemble, the show reframes the band’s legendary catalog with fresh grooves, inventive arrangements, and unexpected musical backdrops.

What might The Beatles sound like if they were an emerging band today?

Jazz Mafia is a wrecking crew of musicians, composers, and producers whose music, media, and curated experiences shape tastes and elevate the community. In the year 2000, trombonist, bassist, composer, arranger, and producer Adam Theis co-founded Jazz Mafia – an eclectic artist collective of forward-thinking and accomplished players in Electro, Hip-Hop, World, Classical, and Jazz. Jazz Mafia is a prolific staple of the quintessential San Francisco sound, uniting creative and accomplished Bay Area instrumentalists, vocalists, MCs, composers, and arrangers.
