Experience the soulful fusion of Premium Blend, a modern jazz quintet blending Blue Note tradition with hip-hop and R&B grooves. From their award-winning documentary 38th & Postmodernism to collaborations with cinematic icons, this MAPFUND Grant-winning ensemble is known for high-energy, original compositions. Join for an electrifying evening as we capture Premium Blend’s signature sound for a special live album recording—be part of the magic and the music!
In addition to producing 5 studio albums, Premium Blend's music has been used in exhibits at The Children's Museum and Connor Prairie as well as performing for the academy award winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter. Their 2020 documentary (sponsored by the Indianapolis Jazz Foundation) "38th & Postmodernism" was accepted by The Heartland International Film Festival and grabbed the attention of the prestigious MAPFUND Grant based out of New York City. They currently have a residency at Parlor Public House every Thursday evening where their original compositions and groove filled arrangements are enjoyed by a diverse and energetic crowd of music lovers.
