In The Groove: Kasan Belgrave performs live on WDET ahead of 2024 Detroit Jazz Festival

28 August 2024 at 21:34

Gearing up for 2024 Detroit Jazz Fest — my favorite festival in all of Detroit — with a live in-studio performance from saxophonist Kasan Belgrave and his band (Michael Abbo on bass, Jordan Anderson on piano, Kaleb Robinson on drums). Kasan is the son of Marcus Belgrave, one of the most iconic jazz musicians and educators to come out of Detroit and an internationally recognized talent. 

There’s some really powerful legacy there for sure, but Kasan is stepping out and doing his own thing on his debut album, Dual Citizen, due out later this year. During his session on In The Groove, he performed two songs from the upcoming record. Kasan’s session was absolutely incredible — I’m still buzzing from it!

You can experience it for yourself when Kasan and his band will perform on Monday at 2 p.m. ET on the Carhartt Stage at the Detroit Jazz Festival. Check out the full schedule here.

Check the playlist below and listen to the episode for two weeks after it airs using the player above.
