Sour Diesel Jams · Tune In
Sour Diesel Jams is a Sacramento jazz-fusion group formed in 2019. Founded by Michael Otwell (saxophone, flute, EWI), Ron Ochoa (drums), and Ken Berger (keyboards), the band fuses the improvisational language of jazz with funk, rock, and Afro-Cuban and Latin rhythms, drawing on harmonies and grooves from around the world. They released their self-produced, self-titled debut CD of seven original compositions on December 22, 2022, and hold a regular residency on the fourth Friday of each month at Fox & Goose Public House in Sacramento. They have also performed at The Torch Club in Sacramento.
