About This Event

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for Nicholas Payton! Nicholas Payton – Trumpet, KeysEric Wheeler – BassGerry Gibbs – DrumsNicholas Payton is a trumpeter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, and cultural theorist from New Orleans, Louisiana. One of the most significant musical voices of his generation, Payton has released more than twenty albums as a leader and has performed and recorded with an extraordinary range of artists across genres and traditions. He is a Grammy Award winner and the originator of the #BAM (Black American Music) philosophy, through which he has spent over a decade challenging the mislabeling and misrepresentation of Black creative music. His work moves across swing, funk, blues, R&B, and electronic music with the conviction that these are all expressions of a single, continuous cultural language. Payton is a lifelong New Orleanian whose practice is inseparable from the city's musical inheritance and its ongoing role as the source of American sound.Presented by The Jazz Purveyor, with support from the Houston Jazz Collective 501(c)3 and Fred Haas Toyota, for the benefit of music in Texas. Please Note: MONKS JAZZ IS NOW A FULL SERVICE BAR. As part of this transition, Monks Jazz is no longer a BYOB venue. We invite you to enjoy our thoughtfully curated beverage menu and roll with us through the changes! As always, this is a live-taping, so we'll be enforcing a whisper-policy!
