SOhO’s schedule this week showcases a bunch of Santa Barbara-based acts covering a huge swath of genres. Soul Majestic, which seamlessly segues from roots reggae to R&B and folk-rock, headlines on Friday, February 19, followed the next night by M.O.B. Quintet, an all-star ensemble that performs an eclectic blend of Euro-Brazil progressive jazz and fusion from the 1970s ECM era. Zoe Guess, Victoria Vox, and Neil Erickson comprise the next installment in SOhO’s singer-songwriter series on February 22 before Glen Phillips, the frontman for Toad the Wet Sprocket and perhaps the greatest singer-songwriter in Santa Barbara’s history, returns to the club the next night. Then Thursday, February 24, brings another all-star outfit in The Shape Shifters, a high-quality quartet whose guests this time around include Miriam Dance, Jonathan McEuen, Lois Mahalia, Sharon Hendrix, Morganfield Burnett, and Jackson Gillies.
