Hailing from the hills of North Carolina and now a force on the New York scene, Linger has taken the jazz world by storm — from winning the American Jazz Pianist Competition to becoming a 2023 American Pianists Awards laureate. A fixture at NYC's most iconic rooms — The Village Vanguard, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Smalls, Mezzrow — Linger brings his deeply expressive style and razor-sharp artistry to San Francisco for an intimate and unforgettable evening. Whether leading a trio or flying solo, Linger’s sound is bold, spontaneous, and full of soul — the kind of jazz that makes you lean in, listen close, and never forget. Don't miss this rare West Coast appearance from a true rising star. His latest album Out In It (Cellar Music) topped the JazzWeek charts and is a must-hear for lovers of modern piano magic.
