Thursday, Nov. 7 Perfect Pairing Shawn Colvin burst onto the music scene in 1989 with her debut album Steady On, which went on to win a Grammy for best contemporary folk album. She was recently inducted into the Austin City Limits Hall of Fame, where Jackson Browne praised her, calling her “utterly original in her singing and original in what she speaks about in her songs.” Fifteen years after Colvin’s momentous entrance, KT Tunstall took the music scene by storm in her multi-platinum debut album Eye to the Telescope in 2004, featuring “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” and “Suddenly I See.” Tunstall is a skilled singer-songwriter and engaging performer, balancing folk music with rock ‘n’ roll. The two met a few years ago at the Girls Just Wanna Weekend in Mexico organized by Brandi Carlile. They hit it off and have been touring together in a show where their individual styles, instrumentalism and vocals are the perfect complement to each other. [PM] 7:30pm Thursday, Nov. 7. Sunset Center, San Carlos Street at 9th Avenue, Carmel. $65-$95. 620-2048, sunsetcenter.org. Friday, Nov. 8 Jazz Hot Is there anything Daniel Harris III doesn’t do? He’s a noted jazz trumpeter, producer, educator, founder of a record label and a jazz foundation. He leads two bands, has played Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Center and earned the Woody Herman Jazz Award. Geez—and he is a recent graduate of the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music. And if overachieving young people like Harris piss you off, the news only gets worse (or better, if you are more open-minded). He’s playing with Ayo Brame, a 17-year-old saxophone player and jazz purist who is so impressive that the likes of Kev Choice and Stabe Wilson seek him out. This is the present and future of jazz. And they are playing two sets—an entire jazz festival on one stage. [DF] 8pm Friday, Nov. 8. Wave Street Studios, 774 Wave St., Monterey. $33.85; $23.18/outdoor seating; $17.85/students, military. 655-2010, wavestreetstudios.com. 22 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY november 7-13, 2024 www.montereycountynow.com JENNIFER ANDERSON A new exhibit by Jennifer Anderson at Carmel Art Association will be on display until Dec. 2 (Dolores Street between 5th and 6th, Carmel). The show is titled Wild Wanderings: A 100 Day Creative Journey, featuring works she completed earlier this year based on a challenge. For 100 consecutive days, Anderson created artworks in a variety of mediums. This solo show features oil paintings that were inspired from the 100-days pieces, and the show also includes many of the mixed-media artworks from the challenge. Anderson will also debut her newly published Wild Wanderings. At first known as a printmaker, Anderson became a watercolorist, continuing her themes of nature, then eventually turned to oil painting.

The six artists in the group are Martha Casanave, Susan Hyde Greene, Jane Olin (whose work is pictured above), Anna Rheim, Robin Robinson and Robin Ward. They are all photographers who are steeped in the local West Coast photography tradition and now mostly use experimental or analog alternative process techniques. They’ve been gathering locally as a group since 2014, as a group of women needing to go deep into their work. They began exhibiting in 2015 at Carl Cherry (4th and Guadalupe, Carmel). Since then, they’ve had unique significant exhibitions, including at MMA and CPA. Salon Jane Celebrates Ten Years: Photography Reimagined is the title of this exhibit. A walk-through with the artists takes place at 2-3pm on Saturday, Nov. 9. The exhibit and events are free to attend. [AP] The dogs are the stars of the show for Chris Perondi’s Stunt Dog Experience. Expect plenty of acrobatic maneuvers from these four-legged athletes, who flip their way to Sunset Center in Carmel. Alyssa Buller Need a holiday gift—or maybe a gift for yourself?
