Ever since recording Rick Fay—a longstanding member of Disney Parks’ music department—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 year’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 who’s-who of Arbors signees, as local as La Lucha and as fabled as Charlie Byrd Trio’s Chuck Redd, will convene in the main theater inside the historic St. Pete venue.
