The New Black Eagle Jazz Band

The New Black Eagle Jazz Band returns to Highfield with their infectious, soulful, and uplifting style of traditional New Orleans jazz. Last year’s sell-out concert delivered on every front! The band pays homage to the greatest musicians of the early jazz era–Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, and Duke Ellington–but with their own eclectic sound. They incorporate spirituals, 1920s and 30s popular music, and even some songs recorded by Elvis and Bob Dylan.

The Black Eagles have been featured in numerous prestigious jazz festivals, and with a Grammy nomination, over forty recordings, a vast repertoire, inspired musicians, and a highly entertaining stage manner, it’s no wonder that the New York Times has noted that the Black Eagles are “So far ahead of other traditional bands…there is scarcely any basis for comparison.”

This is a NOT to be missed summer event!
