The Jazz Therapists are a group of stellar Bay Area musicians who have been playing their unique swinging arrangements from the great American songbook, jazz standards and forgotten gems since 2015.

Boasting an illustrious cast of musicians who have performed and recorded with a dizzying array of talent, from Ray Charles and Taj Mahal, to Pharaoh Saunders and Bobby Hutcherson, to Kenny Barron, and KD lang, to Calvin Keyes and Julian Priester.

The band has one of the Bay Area’s busiest sidemen, drummer David Rokeach, on piano Ben Stolorow and first-call bassist Mark Heshima Williams. Trombonist and ace arranger Mike Rinta, who earned a 2014 Grammy award with the Pacific Mambo Orchestra, supplies the majority of the charts. Mike and tenor sax player Lincoln Adler were featured in the horn section of Taj Mahal’s acclaimed recent “Savoy” album. Together they are “The Jazz Therapists!”
