His quintet features his brother, Antoine Roney, on sax, Aruan Ortiz on keyboard, Rashaan Carter on bass, and Kush Abadey  on drums. Spazio is located at 14755 Ventura Blvd. in Sherman Oaks. Shows at 8 and 10 pm. For reservations, call (818) 728-8400.

  • Young Artist Jazz Series Presents Guitarist Giavanna at Catalina, April 20 (Mar 16, 2010)

    Young Artist Jazz Series Presents Guitarist Giavanna at Catalina, April 20

    Giavanna

    The Young Artist Jazz Series presents guitarist Giavanna at Catalina on Tuesday, April 20 at 8:00 p.m. Giavanna is a 16-year-old junior attending City Honors High School. Inspired by the music of Wes Montgomery at the age of 7, she began her artistic journey as a self-taught jazz guitarist with a gift to play by ear. "The first time I heard Wes Montgomery, I was blown away because he made the guitar sound like it was talking to me and listeners," says Giavanna. After years of self study, she made her performance debut as a jazz artist in 2007 and since has sessioned and done recording work in preparation for her upcoming CD release. The Young Artist Jazz Series began in 1996 with the goal of providing a forum for local young jazz artists to showcase their talents in front of a live audience while giving the community the opportunity to support and enjoy these musicians.
