Kylan deGhetaldi is a pianist, singer and composer specializing in ragtime and other early jazz genres. Born and raised in Santa Cruz, Kylan was drawn to the music of Scott Joplin and other ragtime composers from an early age. After starting one of the first YouTube channels featuring ragtime and “stride” piano, Kylan soon began performing on the trad jazz circuit, and eventually he founded and directed his own ragtime festival in Santa Cruz in 2016/17. Kylan is also a touring member of the international sensation Postmodern Jukebox, with whom he has performed in over 50 cities on 4 continents. Locals Love: The Alley Oop! atmosphere of an intimate, windowless 50-seat speakeasy with leather booths, a 1952 Baldwin baby grand piano, and vintage French fashion posters. First Timers Miss: The dress code is “Dress sharp, speak easy”. Leave your flip flops at the beach. Insights: There are no reservations. It is all first come, first served. The entrance off Jazz Alley and Birch Street has no prominent signage. There is no cover, but they focus on vintage cocktails and high end shared plates of food you will not want to miss.

Formed in 1986, Rockapella rocketed to stardom in 1993 with their hit single “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?” (featured in the PBS TV series of the same name). Led by Scott Leonard’s signature high tenor voice and mind-blowing arrangements and Jeff Thacher’s one-of-a-kind vocal percussion, Rockapella has been a global phenomenon for nearly 40 years, setting the standard for all a cappella vocal groups. The “band” (famous for their ability to imitate the sounds of instruments with only their voices) has been featured everywhere from the Boston Pops to the Muppets, and their voices have been the soundtrack for everything from Folgers and Doritos to Aflac and HBO.
