Immanuel Wilkins - Immanuel Wilkins Quartet: Live at the Village Vanguard Vol. 1 (2026)

GRAMMY-nominated alto saxophonist & composer Immanuel Wilkins releases his first-ever live album, a searing 3-volume document of his acclaimed quartet in action at a hallowed NYC jazz shrine: Immanuel Wilkins Quartet: Live At The Village Vanguard. Wilkins’ quartet featuring Micah Thomas on piano, Ryoma Takenaga on bass, and Kweku Sumbry on drums takes flight on expansive explorations of Wilkins originals in a room steeped in jazz lore, adding his name to a list of jazz greats who have made seminal live recordings within these same walls including John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Joe Henderson, Bill Evans, and others.
