Sweet World
Friday, July 24, 2026 · 6:00–8:00 PM Trumpeter/composer Kenny Warren's music embodies the adventurous spirit of jazz and is inspired by the multitudinous sounds of New York. "Non-stop eccentricity and rhythmically complex music, all while achieving a fleet-footed and airy spirit…. simultaneously free-flowing and absolutely thrilling” (NYC Jazz Record). Featuring Nathan Ellman-Bell on drums and Christopher Hoffman on cello |
Eliza Edens
Saturday, July 25, 2026 · 4:00–6:00 PM Alt-folk for (and from) neighborhood folk. "With a love for tinkering with alternate tunings à la Nick Drake, a curious harmonic ear from years of childhood classical piano lessons, and an ever-expanding affinity for words and stories, Edens’ songs build a kaleidoscopic world." - Club Passim |
Alegba & Friends
Sunday, July 26, 2026 · 4:00–6:00 PM Alegba and Friends is a collective led by Haitian roots and jazz musician Alegba Jahyile. Born out of spontaneous, daily jam sessions in the Prospect Park during the pandemic! |
The concert series, held on the porches of private houses in Ditmas Park since July 2020, was created in order to offer a venue for musicians to perform during the COVID-19 pandemic. The series provides them with a source of income as well as providing a safe space for neighbors to gather to enjoy live music.
The performances are free, but a suggested donation of $10--which goes directly to the musicians--is more than welcome. Donate either at the performance or online at the tax-deductible Operation Gig Musician Guarantee Fund page on GoFundMe.
