($20-30 + DICE Fees | 6:30pm & 8:30pm Shows) Tucson’s beloved torch singer Chelsee Hicks returns to The Century Room, draped in her signature vintage glamour and ready to deliver a night of jazz steeped in nostalgia and charm. Known for her smoky tone and magnetic stage presence, Hicks brings a fresh twist with a trio only ever seen on the Century Room stage: Alassane Diarra on keys, Chris Peña on organ, and Rylande Dodge on drums. This powerhouse rhythm section lays down a lush, groove-driven backdrop for Chelsee’s sultry interpretations of classic standards. Whether swingin, slow-burning, or somewhere in between, these tunes are just the way she likes them—full of feeling, flair, and a touch of cinematic drama. Don’t miss this rare and radiant collaboration.

Join Gabrielle Pietrangelo and her band on July 24th
If you ask anyone in Tucson about singer-songwriter Gabrielle “Gabby” Pietrangelo, they may tell you how she won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest with her Tucson anthem, “Summer Losers,” how she taught their children music, or helped someone find their voice after years away from singing. Gabrielle is a Tucson-based musician, award-winning songwriter, harmony group leader, teacher, and community builder, with a downtown music studio that is home to both school-age students and adults seeking to nurture their musical lives.
Gabrielle released her finest collection of songs to date on March 7, 2025, with her album Back to the Heart. As Duncan Hudson, Musical Director at KXCI, writes, “Back to the Heart is an album that was many years—and a lifetime of living—in the making and serves as a love song to this community, its people, their stories both personal and collective, and the amazing Sonoran Desert region we call home.” Whether performing solo or with her talented backing band, including Thøger Lund on upright bass, Casey Hadland on drums, and Chris Peña on keys, Gabrielle brings joy, artistry, and inspiration to every show.
Columbus, Ohio indie legends Moviola visit Tucson for the first time ever! With 11 albums over three decades to their name, this night will be a rare treat. Their latest, Earthbound (Dromedary), continues an inimitable mix of fuzzy cosmic country, Ohio Soul, and buzzing (gimme) indie rock. For fans of: the Kinks, Neil Young, Silver Jews, Fugs. Don’t miss.

Pat Metheny is one of jazz’s most celebrated and versatile guitarists, born in Lee’s Summit, Missouri in 1954. A prodigy who began teaching at Berklee College of Music as a teenager, Metheny burst onto the scene with his 1976 debut Bright Size Life (featuring Jaco Pastorius) and went on to lead the Pat Metheny Group for over three decades. His music spans contemporary jazz, jazz fusion, Latin jazz, and adventurous avant-garde territory, always anchored by his unmistakable melodic voice on guitar. A collaborator of legends — from Ornette Coleman and Charlie Haden to David Bowie and Joni Mitchell — Metheny has earned 20 Grammy Awards across 10 different categories, a record no other artist has matched. He is an NEA Jazz Master and DownBeat Hall of Famer, and remains one of the most prolific and innovative forces in music today.

The weirder your item, the better the bit. A trophy, a taxidermied something, a truly unhinged memento — all fair game. Comics turn your stuff into punchlines, and the crowd goes along for the ride.
See you at Club Congress and bring something weird.

($25-$35 + DICE fees | 6:30pm Show) Danny Sinoff has spent more than 20 years performing the Great American Songbook in clubs, concert halls, and festivals from Southwest Florida to New York City — The Apollo Theater, Smoke, Chris’ Jazz Café, and beyond. A pianist, baritone vocalist, and bandleader, he keeps alive the tradition of the singing jazz pianist: two instruments in conversation, the piano holding time and harmony as the voice tells the story.
His forthcoming album Make Someone Happy — produced by Ulysses Owens Jr. for Cellar Music Group — brings those decades of work to focus. This evening draws from that repertoire and beyond: well-known standards alongside hidden gems, with the stories behind the composers and the songs. Straight-ahead jazz, built on swing, spontaneity, and direct communication with the room.
Featuring Danny Sinoff (piano & vocals) Scott Black (bass) Arthur Vint (drums)

($20-30 + DICE Fees | 6:30pm & 8:30pm Shows) Hometown hero Kevin Ravellette returns to Tucson this summer from his studies at Texas State University to lead a night dedicated to one of his biggest influences on the saxophone, Donny McCaslin! Donny himself has graced the Century Room stage on two occasions playing new material, but this show will focus on Donny’s music from the 2010 album “Perpetual Motion”, which in part inspired David Bowie’s “Black Star”. “Perpetual Motion” delves into angular post-bop, blistering polyphonic funk, backbeat-driven R&B, and delicate, ethereal balladry. Come find out why Paul always says “if its good enough for Bowie its good enough for you!”
