The King Street Giants

Since the release of the beloved indie classic, Napoleon Dynamite, 20 years ago, much has changed, but the characters, as enduring as they are endearing, stay in our hearts. This unique evening includes a full screening of Napoleon Dynamite, followed by a lively discussion with cast members, Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite), Jon Gries (Uncle Rico), and Efren Ramirez (Pedro). Perfect for the whole family, this live show is a wild and hysterical blend of Q&A, comedy improv, game show, and party, with plenty of audience participation.

Since 2012, The King Street Giants have brought their own special version of New Orleans music to the Bay Area and beyond. Whether they’re playing in clubs or on the streets, The King Street Giants are famous for radiating an infectious energy and always having a blast. While continuing to play the music of their heroes, they have also been writing original music in an effort to continue to evolve the idiom of Traditional New Orleans Jazz. Winners of the North Bay Bohemian’s “Best Band in Sonoma County” award in 2017, as well as “Best Jazz Band” in 2022 and 2014, The King Street Giants released their third studio album, fourth in total, on August 3, 2020. Titled Everything Must Go, the album features 11 original songs written by the band, including their first ever original vocal tunes.
