Steve Jaxon & the Mix!

They're back! Check out Steve Jaxon & the Mix this Wednesday night at Hopmonk in Sebastapol.

Back in 1982, the Mix was one of the first groups in the Bay Area to achieve huge success, with a 9 piece band featuring hot covers of the best of Motown, R&B, and funk. Other bands that followed the Mix formula include Pride and Joy and the Zazu Pitts Memorial Orchestra. The original Mix featured vocalists Gailene Grillo, Claire Victor and Tony Norman, with Steve Wolf on bass, Steve Jaxon on drums and vocals, and the amazing guitarist Steve Kimock! Now Jaxon, Grillo, and Wolf are together again, plus the Mix now features one of the top guitarists in the North Bay, Randy Quan, and veteran horn and keyboard player, Ed Randol. the new "mix" of music features more variety than ever, and beautiful four-part harmonies.
