Christian McBride will be performing at the Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City on July 24, 2026. McBride is a highly acclaimed bassist and composer whose work spans a remarkably broad range of jazz styles. Initially recognized for his post-bop acoustic work with artists like Freddie Hubbard and McCoy Tyner, he has consistently demonstrated versatility, incorporating elements of funk, soul, R&B, and even hip-hop into his compositions and improvisations. He frequently leads ensembles showcasing both his instrumental prowess and arranging skills.

The Blue Note Jazz Club, located in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, has been a cornerstone of the jazz world since its founding in 1981. While the current venue opened then, the location has a longer history with jazz; it previously housed a different club that featured performances by musicians like Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie in the 1950s. The Blue Note quickly gained prominence for its intimate atmosphere and commitment to presenting both established stars and emerging talent. It’s renowned for its excellent acoustics and has hosted countless legendary performers across decades, becoming synonymous with quality jazz performance and a vital part of New York City’s cultural landscape.
