Diego Martinez, Chris Vu, and Dylan Knowles are San Antonio natives who lead the Fermata Jazz Quintet together. They play swing, Latin grooves, and new takes on jazz favorites, and they have been coming back to our stage since September 2025. Diego also runs Fermata Jazz, a company that books live music, and he studied music business at Berklee.
Check the time on each date, because the nights are not all alike. Some are early shows with dinner service. Others are midnight sets, looser and later, with a late-night menu and the bar open. Past nights have included a candlelit tribute to Chet Baker, "An Hour With Chet," and a Christmas set with "Let It Snow."
