Rodney Jordan Quintet w/
the Memphis Blue Project

Grammy-nominated jazz bassist Rodney Jordan and his quintet will perform selections from their chart-topping album Memphis Blue and will premiere new works written specifically for this concert celebrating their long-standing friendships in Atlanta. Memphis Blue spent 26 weeks on the JazzWeek Top 100 Chart, hovering in the top 10 for several weeks, and was one of the highest-charting independent releases.

Considered a love letter home to his native Memphis, Jordan says,“Memphis Blue is not a typical blues recording but if you listen closely, every piece has that thread running through it. There’s an optimism in the way we play that embodies the blues spirit.”
