Saturday Concert

The Caffe Trieste Band can consist of accordion, organ, piano, guitar, mandolin, bass guitar, bass violin, harmonica, washboard, banjo, spoons, congas and just about any other low-tech instrument (except for Fabio's Petosa Millennium digital reedless accordion). Well known Bay Area favorites such as David Sturdevant, Dave Jess, Tony Mance (a.k.a Antonio Mancini), Ned "Eddi" Boynton, Ken Fishler and Owen Davis are "regulars" with the band. Multiple accordions are not unusual at the concert. Noted Bay Area accordionists such as Dave Baioni and Ron Borelli join Fabio and the band. Our 3+hour show now starts at about 1 p.m. $7.00 minimum per person. No cover charge. For more information about show schedule, theme shows, and guest singers, please go to our events page.
As of March, 2004. the Caffe’s seating and stage area arrangement have been reconfigured to be more audience friendly. As it was in the late 1960’s and perdiodically during the 1980’s, the audience now enjoys the same Caffe Trieste ambience with an added bit of Cabaret flavor. The “new” stage area is set against the beautiful Fishermans’ mural depicting a scene in Sardegna, the house sound reinforcement system has been completely revamped (engineer included), and the performances have never sounded or looked so good.
EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Caffe Trieste Band guitarist "Eddi" Boynton brings his Cafe Americain acoustic string quartet from 7 to 10:00 p.m. Come enjoy Romantic Gypsy Jazz, Choros, Rock, and Italian other great repertory. For more info, visit www.cafeamericainsf.com or call Eddi at 415 710 7352

Zighi Baci
Sheri Mignano’s Zighi Baci (pronounced ZIGGY BOTCH-chee) band likes to play dance music in the Italian “Ballo Liscio” style: waltzes, mazurkas, polkas, rhumbas, tangos, tarantellas, paso dobles, jotas, and marches.
A hundred years ago, Italian dance hall music saturated popular culture with the Viennese school influence; it later fused with Latin rhythms and Italian melodies to create a broader appeal. By the mid-1950’s, the next generation of Italian-American composers were introducing these dance genres to San Francisco Bay Area audiences in cafes and nightclubs. Zighi Baci performs Italian standards and music written by Bay Area composers such as Frank & Lawrence Andrini, Peter Tarzia, Rudy Cipolla, Gino Pellegrini, Mike Corino, and other Italian immigrants.
Two thousand four marks Zighi Baci’s debut at the Cotati Accordion Festival! Their performance is dedicated to Sheri Mignano’s grandfather, Francesco Mignano who played the button box, and to Mike Corino, composer, accordion virtuoso and teacher. Fabio Giotta will sit in as guest accordionist at the Festival.
Zighi Baci also performs at Caffe Trieste locations and at other venues throughout Northern California.
