SHELLY NOVO<\/strong><\/p>\n JAHNAVI HARRISON <\/strong>Get ready for not one but two special seated events of spirituality and inner space in the Santa Cruz Mountains with British musician Jahnavi Harrison. Her 2015 debut album, Like a River to the Sea<\/em>, has been described as a \u201cdeeply satisfying masterpiece\u201d and \u201ca first album of astonishing ripeness and sweetness.\u201d That\u2019s probably because Harrison is the real deal when it comes to meditative, Hindu mantra music. She was born to a family of Bhakti-yoga practitioners and raised at the Gaudiya Vaishnava Hindu temple, Bhaktivedanta Manor in the English Hertfordshire countryside. Through music Harrison creates layers of beauty while still leaving space for spirit. MAT WEIR<\/strong><\/p>\n KABAKA PYRAMID <\/strong>Kabaka Pyramid is one of the hardest-hitting reggae rappers on the scene right now.

ISABELLA MARIE SANGALINE<\/strong><\/p>\n DJANGO FESTIVAL ALL STARS <\/strong>Belgian-born Romani guitarist Django Reinhardt spearheaded the hot jazz movement in the 1930s. His legacy, established with violinist and co-leader St\u00e9phane Grappelli in the Quintette Hot Club de France, endures to this day. While jazz has moved into myriad areas, the uptempo acoustic styles that Reinhardt pioneered a century ago remain influential and a popular draw for musicians and audiences alike. The Django Festival All Stars\u2014guitarists Samson Schmitt and Francko Mehrstein, Ludovic Beier on accordion, fiddler Pierre Blanchard, Antonio Licusati on bass, and vocalist Veronica Swift\u2014celebrate that legacy and bring it into the 21st century.

She added jazz textures to 2013\u2019s Can You Stand the Heat<\/em>. She dove into soul with 2015\u2019s Blue Room<\/em>. Her 2018 album Like It On Top<\/em> was a concept album. 2023\u2019s Power<\/em> was funky. Earlier this year, Popovi\u0107 toured festivals in the U.S. and Europe with an 11-piece big band.

BK<\/strong><\/p>\n HANNIBAL BURESS <\/strong>It looks like Christmas arrived early because the hilarious Hannibal Buress is returning to the Catalyst. It\u2019s the first time he\u2019s returned to the venue since 2019. Because Buress is a comedian\u2019s comedian. He started his career in 2002 on the frontlines in the comedy clubs. However, he continued crafting his routine, constantly writing new material. This would later land him gigs writing for SNL<\/em> and 30 Rock<\/em> along with playing the sidekick on The Eric Andre Show. <\/em>And it\u2019s hard to talk about Buress without mentioning it was his bit about Bill Cosby that drew attention to the latter\u2019s history of rape and eventual downfall\u2014proving that words, and comedy, still have power.
