SAN FRANCISCO, June 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Black Cat, jazz and supper club, based in the historic Tenderloin District where jazz greats such as Theolonius Monk and Miles Davis once played, announces an expanded artist-in-residency program designed to provide young musicians and singers with time to cultivate their creativity through multi-day performances. Isaiah Collier and The Chosen Few, a contemporary jazz quartet led by 24-year-old saxophonist Collier, is booked June 22-25 for a residency. In 2021, Collier released "Cosmic Transitions" to critical acclaim, including a 5-star review from DownBeat magazine.

  • Jazz pianist Javier Santiago, who completed a residency at the club in March, calls the Black Cat "a safe place" for expression.
