Past Event


Five musicians flawlessly blend into the ultimate Kansas City jazz sound while bringing their unique touch to the stage.


Led by saxophonist Gerald Dunn, this quartet captures and captivates its audiences.  Dunn plays an inventive, contemporary sound and knows how to capture an audience’s attention. He has been featured in bands with Illinois Jacquet and Bobby Watson.

Pianist Everett Freeman has toured with Oleta Adams and performs with a deliciously intricate, yet fluid, grace. There are few Kansas City jazz musicians whom drummer Michael Warren hasn’t backed, and bassist DeAndre Manning provides a solid footing to this group of seasoned local musicians. For this performance, the ensemble will be joined by special guest trumpeter Danny Campbell.
