Join ESS for our summer gala! With performances by Tortoise, Helen Gillet with Kim Alpert, TALsounds, and Jeff Parker/Ben LaMar Gay/Tomeka Reid, this is a line up you do not want to miss. All proceeds go directly back into our programs, supporting the artists we work with and helping ESS continue to make space for creative experimentation.

Famous for his work in the band Tortoise, versatile guitarist Jeff Parker is an experimentalist in the truest sense, willing to explore and cross pollinate genres from hip hop to soul-jazz to electronic to chamber music. This Live in Studio A performance is a unique chance to hear Jeff in an intimate setting.
