The Birthday Bash is the major fundraising event for KSBR. 

The KSBR Birthday Bash Jazz Festival and Taste of the Bash was voted 1st runner up in the OC Hot List’s 2014 Best Festivals in Orange County, coming in right behind the OC Fair. 

The unique event features more than 30 contemporary jazz artists with headliners often leaving their own bands behind to play with one another.  Melissa Manchester, Dave Koz, Mindi Abair, Joe Sample, Brenda Russell, Boney James, David Benoit, Hiroshima, Rick Braun, and Peter White are just a few of the musicians who have appeared in the past.  Because of contractual obligations, many of the most popular artists cannot be announced until they actually step on stage, which makes the event even more fun and surprising.  

The event will include a special tribute to Veterans.  Saddleback College’s Veterans Memorial is the most significant tribute to veterans at any community college campus in the nation. In recognition of this event and the role that the college’s VETS (Veterans Education and Transition Services) Center plays in the community, the festivities will include a color guard performance and a special musical tribute to kick off the concert.

In addition, veterans and active military personnel may purchase general admission tickets for just $30 through KSBR’s Membership Services office: (949) 582-4501.
Tickets are available at www.KSBR.org, and beginning April 22 at the Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center, and the Saddleback College Fine Arts Ticket Office (949-582-4656).
