Presenting The Roy Hargrove Big Band 

Presenting The Roy Hargrove Big Band - Live and direct

Roy Hargrove was one of the most important and influential musicians of his generation. Since his passing it has been our mission to keep Roy's music going and going strong. We re-launched Roy's big band last year to keep that music alive for musicians and audiences alike. Consisting mainly of Roy’s original big band and quintet members - all music heavyweights in their own right - with the addition of a few bright talents this powerhouse band not only brings his music to life like nobody’s business, they continue Roy’s spirit in full force. And bringing down the house every time 😜
