rodriguez, sternberg & sergel
Date: 2025-12-08
Time: 20:00:00
Venue: Little Jumbo
When three master musicians converge at Little Jumbo Bar, expect the unexpected. Jacob Rodriguez brings his world-traveling baritone sax—seasoned from Michael Bublé's Grammy stages to Brooklyn's underground scenes—ready to paint midnight stories with reed and breath. Quinn Sternberg anchors the room with bass lines that don't just walk, they architect entire musical conversations, transforming rhythm section duties into chamber music poetry. Al Sergel completes the triangle with his genre-fluid drumming philosophy, equally comfortable crafting beats for jazz legends and pop sensibilities.
This isn't just a trio—it's three musical chameleons who've learned that the most interesting sounds happen when you refuse to stay in one lane. Rodriguez channels everything from Hard Bop Explosion fire to Congolese mysticism, Sternberg builds gravitational centers that make everyone else sound better, and Sergel treats musical boundaries as suggestions waiting to be reimagined.
In Little Jumbo's intimate setting, where every note matters and every silence speaks volumes, prepare for an evening where San Antonio street corners meet conservatory training, where midnight iPhone memos become full-fledged statements, and where three master storytellers prove that the best conversations happen without words.
