The 10-piece band, composed of some of Memphis’ finest musicians, has been playing together for over 40 years, creating music that incorporates African influences into more traditional jazz, soul, and R&B. Seating will be provided, however guests are free to bring lawn chairs and blankets. There will be finger foods and refreshments on the mansion porch, as well as a cash bar. We are thrilled to come together with the Memphis community to honor Black freedom from slavery through the African Jazz Ensemble’s positive vibrations.
