An intimate, live-recorded jazz session from For Emily, By Emily. A live jazz ensemble leads a standards-forward night built on curated set lists that chase childhood sweetness and memory. Threaded through the evening is a playful “kid in a candy store” motif—whimsy without the sugar rush. Two focused sets, space for real listening, and the room on mic: performance treated like a living record.

The spark: as a kid, Emily was taken to a city candy shop by a beloved family friend and member of her father’s band at the time. He became the “Candyman,” who told her and her sister they could choose anything. Colors blurred; her little sister climbed the shelves for the highest prize. That wide-eyed reach is the point tonight—to drench the music in wonder and to taste how jazz lives in memory.
