Blue Moon Jazz w/Rosie Flores

4.6

Details

If you love your jazz standards with a side of stories, soul, and serious chops, Blue Moon Jazz w/ Rosie Flores is the kind of Tuesday-night magic you plan your week around.

Rosie Flores may be best known as a rockabilly and roots queen, but with the Blue Moon Jazz Quartet she slips into a whole other world: smoky jazz clubs, late-night ballads, and golden-age swing. This special show features Rosie stepping away from her twangy Telecaster persona to channel the American Songbook, leaning into the styles of legends like Billie Holiday and Julie London—still with her unmistakable flair.

Backing her is a handpicked combo of Austin heavy-hitters, including T Jarrod Bonta on piano and Randall Glines on upright bass. Together, they dive into classic jazz standards with arrangements that feel both timeless and freshly reimagined. Expect lush chords, walking bass lines, and those subtle rhythmic twists that turn familiar tunes into something delightfully new.

Rosie herself has described this project as a return to a longtime love: she started singing standards back in her Los Angeles days in the late ’90s, and teaming up with these extraordinary players finally gave her the perfect setting to bring them back to life. For her, it’s “swonderful and smarvelous” to get to sing the songs she loves—and for the audience, it’s a rare chance to see a roots icon cut loose in full jazz mode.

Think intimate listening room vibes, clinking glasses, and that cozy hush that falls over the crowd when a band is absolutely locked in. You might hear torch songs that tug at the heart, breezy swing numbers that make your toes tap under the table, and a ballad or two so pretty you forget to sip your drink.

If you’re a longtime Rosie Flores fan, this is a chance to see a whole different side of her artistry. If you’re just here for the jazz, you’ll still walk away impressed by the chemistry, the musicianship, and the sheer joy these players bring to the stage.

  • Perfect for: jazz lovers, date nights, and anyone who wants an unhurried, grown-up evening of live music.
  • Come early to grab a good spot, settle in, and let Blue Moon Jazz w/ Rosie Flores turn a regular Tuesday into something unforgettable.
