This young group, each of whom is in their early to mid-twenties, has been touring, recording and creating together since their teens and has been a solid, performing ensemble for four years.
The Immanuel Wilkins Quartet’s debut record, Omega, released on Blue Note and produced by Jason Moran, has received NPR’s Best Debut Jazz Album of 2020 and topped the New York Times’ Best Jazz Albums of 2020.
Other accolades showered upon Wilkins include Best New Talent of 2020 by Musica Jazz, and a LetterOne Rising Stars Jazz Award.
