Experience John Medeski live on July 30th

John Medeski will perform at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York on July 30, 2026. Medeski is a keyboardist and composer known for his eclectic style blending jazz, funk, electronica, and improvisation. He gained prominence as a founding member of the influential jazz trio Medeski Martin & Wood (MMW), celebrated for their lengthy improvisations and genre-bending approach. His solo work and collaborations frequently explore sonic textures and rhythmic complexity, often incorporating vintage keyboards and effects.

The Capitol Theatre, originally opened in 1926 as a Loew's Vaudeville Theatre, has a rich history as a performance venue. After periods functioning as a movie palace and falling into disrepair, it was revitalized in 2012 following extensive renovations spearheaded by Peter Shapiro. The theatre is renowned for its excellent acoustics and intimate atmosphere – seating approximately 1,800 people – making it a popular destination for both established and emerging artists. It’s frequently cited as one of the premier live music venues in the New York metropolitan area and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
