Info
On March 19, 2027, Blue Note London hosts Kenny Garrett with his project Sounds from The Ancestors, a live set built around the ideas and energy of his 2021 album. The Detroit-born alto saxophonist comes with that sharp, forward-leaning sound shaped by post-bop and hard bop, but always ready to open the groove to wider rhythmic landscapes, from fusion to African and Asian pulses. Garrett’s playing is direct and mobile, packed with detail yet grounded in melody, with improvisation that stays connected to the band’s collective momentum.
After key years alongside the Duke Ellington Orchestra under Mercer Ellington, Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers, and a defining stretch in Miles Davis’s group, Garrett developed a language where virtuosity doesn’t float above the music: it locks into it. Expect a concert that moves between tight themes and loose, fearless exploration, with the kind of drive that makes every chorus feel like a conversation, not a showcase.
