Farrell Family Jazz at the Athenaeum | Camila Meza

Jazz returns to the Athenaeum for our annual series of summer concerts in the Joan & Irwin Jacobs Music Room (at 1008 Wall Street in La Jolla). This series features both Athenaeum favorites and debuts by internationally acclaimed artists. Seating is limited—so order soon!
The series concludes Sunday, August 4, with Chilean-born guitarist-vocalist Camila Meza. She will be joined by Or Baraket on bass and piano tba. NPR called Meza “one of the best-kept secrets in New York City,” commenting, “Camila Meza is poised to step into a broader spotlight.” The New York Times wrote, “A welcome presence in New York… Ms. Meza brings an appealing combination of lightness and depth to all the material, singing in a bright, clear voice. … Her improvising, on electric or acoustic guitar, is serious business.” DownBeat wrote, “Her impressive guitar playing serves the song as she seeks a perfect balance between poignant vocals and killer chops.”
