Live at the Vineyards 2015 a Smashing Success!

Live at the Vineyards 2015 was the most successful yet! More than 1,200 jazz fans joined us to celebrate our 30th anniversary on August 8, 2015 with a sold-out evening of live music, gourmet feasting, wine tasting, and a silent auction at Balistreri Vineyards. 

Event photos can be viewed here and photos of attendees can be viewed here. For video, click here.

The H2 Big Band 16-piece orchestra – comprised of world-class soloists including founders Al Hood and Dave Hanson – kicked off the evening with special guest vocalist Kevin Mahogany.

Five-time Grammy winner Dianne Reeves and her quartet – featuring John Beasley (piano), Romero Lubambo (guitar), Reginald Veal (bass), and Terreon Gully (drums) – headlined the evening.

The People’s Choice Award for Best Restaurant went to Balistreri Vineyards! Second place went to Frijoles Colorado and Walter’s Pizzeria earned third. See the full menu here.
