Experience an evening of gratitude and inspired music as two legacies come together and celebrate 30. This special evening with Alabama Jazz Hall of Famer Eric Essix will mark the release of his 30th album, “Things Above,” and bring together his band and special guests for “30: A Retrospective.” Tickets from $29. Over a career spanning more than 38 years and 29 full-length albums, Essix has built a body of work defined by artistic excellence, consistency and personal evolution. From his early recordings and Berklee College of Music training to global recognition on Zebra Records (Warner/Electra/Atlantic), his journey has been marked by growth and a steadily deepening sense of purpose. Rooted in contemporary jazz but deeply shaped by the emotional language of gospel, blues and soul, Essix’s music carries both technical sophistication and spiritual depth. For “30: A Retrospective,” Essix will revisit defining moments of his career while sharing new music that reflects where his artistry is headed. Joined by friends and collaborators who helped shape his journey, he celebrates this personal milestone alongside a venue that has been central to Birmingham’s cultural life for three decades.
