David Murray will perform at The Jack London Revue in Portland, Oregon on June 26, 2026. Murray is a highly influential tenor saxophonist known for his contributions to both avant-garde jazz and post-bop. His musical style frequently incorporates elements of blues, gospel, and world music traditions, often characterized by extended improvisations and a robust, emotionally charged tone. He rose to prominence in the 1970s as a key figure in the loft jazz scene in New York City and has since released numerous albums as a leader and sideman, consistently pushing the boundaries of jazz expression.

The Jack London Revue is a long-standing performance venue located in the heart of Portland’s entertainment district. Originally established as a supper club in 1935, it has historically featured a diverse range of performers including jazz musicians, burlesque dancers, and vaudeville acts. Over its decades of operation, the venue underwent periods of various configurations but maintained its reputation for intimate performances and a classic atmosphere.
