About Me

Jessica Felix, Artistic Director of the Festival, has contributed a great deal to the world of jazz with the successful and thriving Healdsburg Jazz Festival. She began her musical activism years ago, with the nonprofit enterprise she and her former partner created in Oakland named “Jazz in Flight.” They bought and restored a Victorian house and within a month after moving in they held the first in a series of concerts that continued for ten years, including an annual New Year’s Eve concert featuring many world-famous musicians.

She also created and produced the first five Eddie Moore Jazz Festivals at Yoshi’s Nightspot, which turned into seven-day major jazz events with musicians from all over the country and even from abroad. Throughout, her house was always home to traveling musicians.
