James Brandon Lewis Trio - Jazz Poetry Month at Alphabet City
Featured musicians

James Brandon Lewis returns to City of Asylum following 2-crowd favorite evenings in Jazz Poetry 2021, including the performance of his album Jesop’s Wagon, named a NYTimes 2021 Best Album of the Year.
The trio will also collaborate with poets Tuhin Das (Bangladesh), Aurielle Marie (US), and Pittsburgh’s Treble NLS (US). James Brandon Lewis is also a poet in his own right.
This celebratory evening is the perfect spirit to close out Jazz Poetry 2022.
With the health, well-being, and comfort of all as our top priorities, City of Asylum requires that staff, artists, and all those attending an event be fully vaccinated. Please click here to learn more about the Covid 19 policies.
