WHAT: In perfect harmony, Whole Foods Market and the House of Rock are coming together to make music and help guests celebrate the holidays while giving back to an important cause. Hosted at the historic Santa Monica estate, all net proceeds from A Jazz Fête will benefit the GRAMMY Foundation and its work cultivating the understanding, appreciation and advancement of recorded music across the United States. The GRAMMY Foundation is based in Santa Monica.
GRAMMY® nominated jazz saxophonist, Dave Koz, and Whole Foods Market Southern Pacific Region president, Patrick Bradley, will serenade the crowd with smooth jazz sounds while guests enjoy some of Whole Foods Market’s latest holiday catering options. For those who want to get a jump start on their holiday planning, the option to pre-order catering for upcoming events – such as holiday office parties and family gatherings – will also be available onsite.
The event also gives attendees a sample of the new releases of Koz wine – a beautiful pairing for Koz’s new CD, Live at the Blue Note Tokyo. And to top off the evening, guests will be able to bid on a selection of silent auction items that include Fender guitars, dinner for two at FIG restaurant in Santa Monica, a personalized wine tasting for six from Koz wines, and more.
