Afro-Cuban jazz, fusion, and deep groove powered by flute, EWI, vocals, and a seriously rhythmic live band.

San Francisco multi-instrumentalist and composer Daniel Riera brings a vibrant mix of Afro-Cuban jazz, Latin rhythm, electronic texture, and modern fusion to Black Cat. Moving between flute, EWI, and vocals, Riera leads a groove-heavy band through original music built for movement, interplay, and live improvisation.

A three-time San Francisco Arts Commission artist grant recipient, Riera has also received the ASCAP Young Jazz Composer Award and earned a Latin Grammy nomination for his work with Los Tangueros del Oeste. His music has been featured by NPR, Snap Judgment, and Spooked!, with collaborations spanning La Doña, Watsky, Kev Choice, Mara Hruby, and more.

Soul, funk, pop, and deep groove inspired by two icons - and reimagined through Courtney Knott’s own voice.

Courtney Knott brings her powerhouse vocals, electrifying stage presence, and original artistry to the music of Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. Across three nights at Black Cat, she blends beloved songs from two of the most influential artists in modern music with original material shaped by their unmistakable impact.

An Oakland-born vocalist, songwriter, producer, pianist, and composer, Knott has performed at the White House and Boston Symphony Hall, contributed to projects including Final Fantasy XV, Tekken, and Reverse: 1999, and written and produced for Atlantic Records and Universal Music Group.

This is more than a tribute - it’s a soulful, high-energy celebration of timeless songs, irresistible grooves, and an artist carrying that influence forward in her own way.
