About this Event
Celebrate the season with California-based trumpeter Jeff Bordes as he brings his acclaimed show, A New Orleans Christmas, to The Sapphire Room! For over a decade, Jeff has been lighting up stages across California with this festive concert that infuses holiday favorites with the soul and swagger of the Crescent City. Much like a good gumbo, the music blends flavorful elements of funk and blues, built on a rich base of New Orleans jazz — stirring together joy, groove, and Big Easy spirit. Joined by vocalist Jackie Gage and Boise’s own Alex Sjobeck on piano, Jeff and his band deliver reimagined holiday classics and originals like the fan-favorite “Santa, Pour Me A Shot.”
