Event Info: 

  Marin Art and Garden Center is pleased to present Matt Jaffe, who will perform in the spectacular shaded venue of our Redwood Amphitheater.

After cutting his teeth on open mics around the Bay Area, San Francisco songwriter Matt Jaffe was discovered by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads. Together, they produced his first album at the age of 16, cementing Matt's dedication to music. Soon, he formed a band, dropped out of college, and has not looked back.

Since then, Matt has cowritten with Tom Higgenson of Plain White T's, opened shows for Blues Traveler and Wilco, and recorded nine albums, trying to make listeners think and dance simultaneously. Matt has served as musical director for experimental theater, collaborated with poets on genre-bending spoken word, and curated residencies among fellow songwriters.

The Redwood Amphitheater features rustic, bench-style seating, bring a cushion or blanket for your comfort. We'll have drinks and snacks available for purchase, and you are welcome to picnic on the grounds before or after the music. A golf cart shuttle will assist guests up the hill from the main parking lot.
