Bay Area guitarist Mason Razavi is a terrific and consistent presence in the Bay Area jazz scene. The West Valley lecturer has performanced with both SF Jazz and San Jose Jazz, and caught play on jazz radio across the world with some great records of originals. Joined by frequent collaborator Brian Ho on the organ and Jason Lewis on the drums, Razavi will be playing two sets at Art Boutiki. The first includes standards and originals with selections from his upcoming solo guitar album, and the second will be a tribute to jazz guitar legend Wes Montgomery.
