The Barbara Lopez Group

Based in Santa Cruz, California, the Barbara Lopez Group is an extremely versatile yet dynamic group that features a selection of the region’s top jazz musicians.

Committed to "designed exploration," the ensemble delves into personal and unique interpretations of jazz standards as well as Barbara’s original compositions, which cover a wide range of influences and time periods. 

Supported by a hard-swinging, synergistic rhythm section and powerful ensemble arrangements, the structure of this group specifically allows for and empowers individual members to excel, while exploring his or her own unique musicality.
