FLAMENCO! LIVE! was envisioned, conceived, and has thrived since 2002 in Sonoma County, California, now celebrating 20 years! Presenting the collaborative efforts of the Bay Area’s finest Flamenco Singers, Guitarists and Dancers, and supporting local Flamenco students, dreamers, and talents, our goal has been to present top-notch instruction and performances. Phoebe Vernier “La Fibi” has brought decades of artistry and energy to the public for the purpose of sharing the music, song and dance, the treasure of Southern Spain. Whether in the classroom, formal theater or in a casual setting, the respect, purity, and integrity of this traditional, yet living and evolving art form is always foremost.
New in 2023!
This performance is underwritten by the generous support of “The Circle of Sponsors”, a group of flamenco music, song and dance supporters from Sonoma County, California and Nationwide that believe in the power of local art to heal and inspire our community and world. Thank you, Sponsors!

Gypsy Trio
2024-05-07 19:00 - 22:00 | The Big Easy, 128 American Alley, Petaluma, CA, 94952, United States
The Gypsy Trio, Northern California’s
premier hot club jazz band, announced today their North Bay Music Award win
and their Northern California press tour beginning. The band is available for gigs
and interviews on Gypsy Jazz as an artform ~ the history and its revival ~ through the
concert season.
With nearly 5,000 votes cast, the 2013 Bohemian’s North Bay Music Awards (Norbays)
presented awards to Northern California’s top talent. The Gypsy Trio won in the
Jazz category, receiving the Gold Record award this summer.
“We have hit a sweet spot here with Gypsy Jazz,” said Scherer.
“Everyone in the band has played the gamut of musical styles – from Rock to Latin & Salsa and then Classic
Jazz, so Gypsy Jazz was an interesting new challenge for us to stretch our musicality,” said Scherer.
“The timing couldn’t be better with the genre regaining popularity. It’s combination of the
sophisticated harmony of Jazz with rhythms and unique enthusiasm appeals to
a contemporary audience.”
About the Gypsy Trio
Formed in 2011 in Sonoma County, The Gypsy Trio, consists of the best musicians the
area has to offer. Ian Scherer, Emily Froberg, and bassist Trevor Kinsel. The Chemistry of The Gypsy Trio is greater than the sum of its parts. The
two guitars “weave” back and forth switching between lead and rhythm guitar and, at times,
play the same part, but always in perfect juxtaposed harmony; the bass alone holds
down the bottom rhythm. Together, the relatively new band has played numerous venues
including KJZY’s after work concert series, Gualala Jazz Festival, Faifax festival, and many others.
