Experience the timeless music of The Beatles like never before—reimagined through the lens of jazz.

Join acclaimed guitarist Peter Sprague and his ensemble for an unforgettable evening of creativity, improvisation, and iconic melodies:

• Rebecca Jade – vocals
• Peter Sprague – guitar

This special tribute concert transforms beloved Beatles classics into vibrant jazz explorations. From the soulful opening of “Let It Be” to the funky groove of “Day Tripper” and the psychedelic energy of “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,” the band takes audiences on a dynamic musical journey filled with inventive arrangements and rich improvisation.

Peter Sprague is a San Diego–based guitarist, composer, arranger, recording engineer, and producer, as well as a lifelong surfer. He is the owner of SpragueLand Studios and founder of SBE Records.

An innovator, Sprague designed a unique twin-neck guitar combining classical and steel-string acoustic necks. He studied with Pat Metheny, Madame Chaloff, and Albin Czak, and has performed with renowned artists including Chick Corea, Hubert Laws, Larry Coryell, David Benoit, and Sérgio Mendes.

With credits on more than 190 recordings, he has also published instructional books and transcriptions, including songbooks for Chick Corea.
