The Grand on State

The Grand on State Street is honored to present An Intimate Evening with Roberta Gambarini & Tamir Hendelman on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, as part of its Visiting Artist Series.

This special one-night engagement brings two internationally acclaimed jazz artists to The Grand’s intimate listening room in the heart of Santa Barbara’s Theatre District. Grammy-nominated vocalist Roberta Gambarini is celebrated for her extraordinary command of the jazz vocal tradition, her warmth, elegance, improvisational brilliance, and deep connection to the great American songbook.

She will be joined by pianist and arranger Tamir Hendelman, known for his lyrical touch, sophisticated harmonies, and work with some of the most respected names in jazz. Together, Gambarini and Hendelman offer an evening of musical conversation, swing, intimacy, and world-class artistry.

Located at 1218 State Street, next to The Granada Theatre, The Grand on State Street was created as a music-first venue where live performance, dining, wine, and late-night elegance come together in a beautifully designed room centered around a Steinway grand piano.

“Our Visiting Artist Series is about bringing extraordinary musicians into close connection with our Santa Barbara community of music lovers,” said Jenna Berg, owner of The Grand on State Street. “Roberta Gambarini and Tamir Hendelman are exactly the kind of artists The Grand was made for — artists whose precision, sophistication, and soulful communication are best experienced up close.”

Guests are invited to come early for dinner, wine, and dessert, and stay for an intimate evening of exceptional jazz.
