Ever since recording Rick Fayโ€”a longstanding member of Disney Parksโ€™ music departmentโ€”in his bandleader debut 36 years ago, Arbors Records has gone on to release the projects of countless names in jazz, and with a hefty streaming library available, very few of those releases are lost to the ages.

This yearโ€™s Palladium Jazz Award is being presented to Rachel Domber (who co-founded the label with her husband Mat, who died in 2012).

To celebrate the honor, a whoโ€™s-who of Arbors signees, as local as La Lucha and as fabled as Charlie Byrd Trioโ€™s Chuck Redd, will convene in the main theater inside the historic St. Pete venue.

Tickets to the Arbors All-Star Jazz Party with Diego Figueiredo, Warren Vachรฉ, La Lucha, Chuck Redd and more, happening at Palladium Theater in St. Petersburg on Saturday, Jan. 18, are still available and start at $25.
