Mark Growden — a Bay Area composer, musician and performer with a theatrical flair — has just released “Saint Judas,” his first new studio album in eight years, and he’ll perform Saturday, May 8,  in Santa Rosa.

Growden’s band includes bassist Seth Ford-Young, guitarist Matt Boisen, cellist Alex Kelly, percussionist Jenya Chernoff and Chris Grady on trumpet. (Several of them have worked with Tom Waits.)

The composer has worked with top Bay Area dance companies, including the Joe Goode Performance Group, The Crucible and Alonzo King’s Contemporary Ballet.

The show starts at 8 p.m. at the North Bay Film & Art Collective, 99 6th St.. Tickets are $10.
