Info
On March 18, 2027, Blue Note London hosts Kenny Garrett with his project Sounds from The Ancestors, a set that brings together everything that shaped his voice as an alto saxophonist: post-bop bite, hard-bop drive, fusion edges, and rhythms that nod to Africa and Asia. On stage, Garrett’s playing stays sharp and mobile, built on dense lines that can turn from melody to groove without losing the thread.
This show draws on a long trajectory that runs from his early years around the Duke Ellington Orchestra and the Jazz Messengers to the decisive stretch with Miles Davis, and into the strong run of records he’s led under his own name. Expect a concert where virtuosity never drifts into abstraction: themes are stated clearly, the band locks into pulse, and improvisation feels collective, physical, and song-minded, with Garrett steering the room from the front.
