Come on down to Visual Arts Collective this Saturday (August 1) for Heart and Heat: a night of Piano & Pairings featuring Chad Spears
World‑traveled pianist Chad Spears takes the keys for an intimate Summer Nights set. He opens the evening with original contemporary works—rich, expressive, and full of feeling. As the night deepens, Chad is joined by some of Boise’s favorite vocalists for a second set that drifts from heartfelt songs to spicier selections -- music with just enough heat to match the season. Each set is paired with thoughtfully crafted cocktails designed to echo the mood—lush, layered, and a little indulgent.
Join Chad and special guest vocalists Jodi Eichelberger, Sandy Santa Cruz, Alaggio Laurino, Bren Trotter, Kendra Kae, and Maria Carmichael for an unforgettable night - elegant, intimate, and just a little bit electric. Elegant, intimate, and just a little bit electric—this is a night of music that lingers, with voices that stay with you long after the last note fades.
Special Offer: Purchase pairings in advance to get two drinks for $20. (normal price $15 each)
-The Open Heart is a crisp, gin-forward Negroni riff blending cucumber-forward Hendrick's Gin, bright Aperol, Lillet Blanc, and a zesty splash of grapefruit juice.

An Old Fashioned riff, The Ancho Heat blends rye and smoky chili liqueur.
