Sax Legend Howard Wiley Celebrates Juneteeth

June 19, 2026 at Mr. Tipple's Jazz Club in San Francisco, CA

Howard Wiley returns to Mr. Tipple’s Recording Studio for a special Juneteenth celebration, honoring the holiday with the music that has always carried the story of Black American freedom — blues, gospel, funk, soul, and jazz. A Berkeley native shaped by the church and the Bay Area scene, Wiley is a musician who, in journalist Drew Foxman’s words, “understands his place not only in an ensemble, but in the history of music” — and there is no better occasion than Juneteenth to feel that history come alive on the bandstand. Tickets: $15–30
Date: June 19, 2026 Time: 7:30 PM 8:30 PM

Mr. Tipple’s Jazz Club sits in San Francisco’s Civic Center area, just off Market, on a block that feels quieter than the room inside. It is a compact, low-lit space with a small stage, tightly packed tables, and a long bar that runs along one side. Sightlines are generally good, but it is an intimate room, so expect to be close to other guests and to the band. more...
