Album release! Hometown favorite Emily Wade Adams returns to Cotuit Center for the Arts with her NYC-based jazz quintet, The Cafe Society, for a special engagement celebrating the release of their debut album.
"In Two" showcases the magic of musical collaboration, led by the quintet's own dynamic duo – vocalist Emily Wade Adams and saxophonist Justin Flynn. Their real-life partnership lends authentic chemistry to a selection of jazz's most captivating musical pairings. From Sinatra & Jobim to Coltrane & Hartman, the performances will highlight fresh interpretations of iconic jazz collaborations. Adams' expressive vocals and Flynn's soulful saxophone breathe new life into timeless works by Monk & McRae, Nancy Wilson & Cannonball Adderley, and more.
Inspired by the groundbreaking integrated 1940s jazz club of the same name, The Cafe Society features some of New York's most sought-after jazz musicians. The quintet has graced the stages of Feinstein's/54 Below, the Roxy, the Rum House in Times Square, and Ian Hendrickson-Smith's Uncle Cheef, among many other prestigious venues.
Don't miss this opportunity to experience New York jazz quintet The Cafe Society for an evening honoring legendary jazz duos.
