The Higgs w/Tenth Mountain Division
Epic, transcendent live shows all over the country have confirmed what many have been saying for a while now: The Higgs are one of the best jam bands alive.
Toubab Krewe w/After Funk
What do you get when West African and Appalachian traditions collide live on stage? One of the most complex and undeniably powerful grooves you've ever heard. These are the sounds of North Carolina's Toubab Krewe. You've probably never heard anything quite like it before and you'll also probably never want it to end.
Sunday Night Jazz Matinee Brunch ft. the Chris Klaxton 4tet
Local trumpet maestro Chris Klaxton brings his quartet for a special matinee edition of SNJ, rounded out with a full brunch menu.
Chris Klaxton is a prime example of ambitious players who are coming up today and breathing new life into the music. Well-schooled by top trumpet masters, he not only has the chops, but also the unbounded imagination needed to transmit his ideas with music. —James Nadal, ALLABOUTJAZZ.COM
