A vehicle for the multi-layered, groove-centric psychedelic jazz compositions of bassist, bandleader, and composer Patrick Murphy, the Oakland-based band project Sitka Sun makes its SFJAZZ debut with this performance.
Starting on guitar at 12 and cutting his teeth on both guitar and bass around the blues circuit of his native Boston, Murphy has established a signature compositional aesthetic that melds the formal jazz education he received at New York's Ithaca College with a range of musical influences, from Afrobeat, Caribbean music, and classic soul to Americana and funk.
