A poet with a guitar and smokin’ hot band!! Maurice Tani is a songslinger working his own lane. Known for his wry-to-romantic writing, agile guitar work and expressive singing, Tani's style is a broad spectrum tincture of influences from jazz, blues, classic country and the Great American Songbook. This is storytelling. A sort of cinema for the blind, shot alternately in grainy black and white noir or vivid technicolor with a wide angle lens. “The Sound Room, with it's jazz club vibe, is a perfect venue for what I do. I love playing this place. It's an intimate, focused experience for the audience and artist.”

Pam Brandon

Joining Tani this time will be his long-time vocal sparring partner, Englishwoman Pam Brandon. Multi-instrumentalist Brandon is one of the Bay Area’s most versatile singers. Fronting groups in jazz, country, rock, western swing, Americana, bluegrass, Pam has been Tani’s #1 go-to singer for his battle-of-the-sexes duets and other songs requiring a strong shot of the feminine mystique. The pair have been collaborating for well over a decade, performing and recording, starting with a set of material they called “The Dirty Duets”. During the global pandemic quarantine, Tani & Brandon produced a series of video singles with other talented musician friends. Find them on YouTube.

Besides Brandon, the band will feature pianist Henry Salvia, bassist Greg Kehret and drummer Timothy Orr.
