Jose Pineiro Trio & Keshia Kaos Banks - Jazz on the Block
Description
In the pursuit of finding a voice in his art, Jose Pineiro has grasped tightly the evocative and emotional genre of Jazz.
Burgeoning from a fertile music scene in Gainesville, FL honed his discovery of a true musical identity. Jumping the gap between peace and mania, the Jose Pineiro Trio means to reach the depths of human interactions to relay the beauty in life.
Keshia Banks is a poet who has released Book of Rhymes :: Soulor System, the first book in a series, which is a self published concept of life's poetic perspectives. A book of poetry. A book of thoughts. A book of perspections. A book of rhymes.

Last year, WUSF lost all of its federal funding. We turned to our community—and you stepped up to support the local, fact-based journalism, music, and cultural programming you love. As a thank-you, we’re excited to invite you to Jazz on the Block, a free celebration in honor of members like you.
During Mental Health Awareness Month, live jazz offers a meaningful way to support well‑being by reducing stress, uplifting mood, and bringing people together through shared experience. WUSF and Suite E Studios presented Jazz on the Block, a vibrant community event hosted at Suite E Studios in St. Petersburg, sponsored by the Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg and partnered with Freeman Sound. This free, five‑hour celebration took place on Saturday, May 9, 2026.
