For almost four decades, Karl Denson has been one of American music's most in-demand horn players and bandleaders — co-founder of the acid-jazz institution The Greyboy Allstars, longtime frontman of the genre-blurring Karl Denson's Tiny Universe and since 2014, the man holding down the saxophone chair for The Rolling Stones. As he turns 70, Denson is pouring a lifetime of groove into his most personal project yet: Karl Denson's AfroSonic. Built around his half century long deep love of Fela Kuti and West African rhythm, the band's self titled debut album arrives early next year — a horn-driven, deep-pocket outing that plays like a career's worth of funk, jazz and soul finally speaking its first language. It isn't a victory lap, It's Denson going back to the source.
The venue does not have dedicated parking. Visitors commonly use nearby metered street parking or paid parking garages in the Alamo Square/Divisadero area. Public transportation and rideshare services are highly recommended.
