Kenny Garrett is an American jazz saxophonist, born in 1960 in Detroit, and has been active since 1978. His music blends jazz fusion and jazz, and he is signed to Atlantic Records. Across a career of more than four decades, his playing has moved between the acoustic and electric sides of the idiom, drawing on the saxophone tradition of modern jazz.

The Blue Note Jazz Club hosts concerts and shows in New York, and this engagement brings Garrett's saxophone and his band-based jazz to the club's stage. The evening suits listeners interested in contemporary saxophone-led jazz and in the fusion strand of the genre, as well as those following the club's jazz programming.

The show takes place on this visit to New York, and the club is a fixed point for jazz audiences in the city. Garrett's recorded output on Atlantic Records is the most direct way to hear the sound before the performance.
