The first concert in the NXT GEN Series will feature bandleaders Taber Gable and Jack Roben. This show takes place August 28, 2022 at 7:30 PM at the Old City Performing Arts Center in Downtown Knoxville. (Doors open at 7:00)

Gable will open the evening with music dedicated to the funky, soulful, and one of the founding fathers of hard bop piano, Horace Silver. This set will uniquely dive into compositions, stylings, and artistry of Horace Silver as arranged by Taber Gable.

Jack Roben will be featuring the music of guitarist Jim Hall. In addition to performing Hall’s compositions, Jack will be presenting original music inspired by the tasteful, introspective, and impressionistic qualities of Hall’s playing and writing.

Join us for two sets of music that illustrate how the masters of jazz influence the NXT GEN.
