If there’s anything we know about the consistency of Diego Figueiredo—one of the finest guitarists to come out of Brazil—it’s that his next album might already be in the can.

Earlier in the summer, he backed Janet Evra up on a new single, “Tenderly,” and if he really wants to create an unforgettable moment, it wouldn’t be the worst idea to invite Ona Kirei—a homegrown talent who shares this stacked, global jazz bill with him—onstage for a quick live collaboration.

The Sokolowski Trombone Project plays a Side Door set pre-show at this gig organized by Clearwater Jazz Holiday.

Tickets to see Diego Figueiredo play Palladium Theater in St. Petersburg on Friday, Aug. 23 are still available and start at $25.
