2022 Festival Schedule
Tickets on sale now for the 34th annual Earshot Jazz Festival! We are excited to announce another exciting slate of brilliant artists—both established and emerging, from Seattle and around the world—coming to you this fall in a setting that fits your preference.
Meridian Odyssey, Earthshine
Earthshine is undoubtedly a product of exciting creative potential, marked by an unwavering commitment to the project shared between the friends.
High Pulp, Pursuit of Ends
Though the production on Pursuit of Ends is lush and encompassing, High Pulp is not a product of the jazz education industrial complex nor a studio creation, but a well-oiled live unit with many touring hours logged, and roots in weekly jam sessions at Seattle’s venerable and essential laboratory of musical exploration, the Royal Room.
Walk the Block
Hosted by Wa Na Wari, the art walk is not only a fundraiser for the organization, but also as a glimpse of its vision of what the Central District could become.
Eric Vloeimans & Will Holshouser
Listeners can expect a satisfying blend of challenging and familiar elements as whistleable tunes meld into soundscapes, folk elements drive rhythmic pulses, and melodic and inventive playing rule the day.
Shai Maestro
The gift of Maestro’s playing is that he doesn’t give in to virtuosity; he’s focused on creating something larger. That might come from his recent work scoring for films, or just from the fact that he’s comfortable enough with ECM now to let there be more space and room in his music.
Artemis
Taking their name and spirit from the Greek goddess of the hunt, ARTEMIS embodies strength, exploration, leadership, and a force that is both fierce and playful. Each member of the multi-generational, multi-national group offers a distinct musical personality, which makes for impressive versatility on the stage.
