Experience Kamasi Washington live on July 30th

Kamasi Washington is scheduled to perform at Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn, New York on July 30, 2026. Washington is a contemporary jazz saxophonist and composer known for his expansive, spiritually-infused compositions that blend elements of post-bop, modal jazz, funk, and hip-hop. His work frequently incorporates large ensembles and extended improvisations, often exploring themes of cosmic consciousness and Black American history. He gained widespread recognition with the release of his critically acclaimed 2015 album *The Epic*, a three-part suite exceeding over two and a half hours in length.

Music Hall of Williamsburg opened in 2007 and operates as a prominent independent music venue within the Brooklyn music scene. The space is owned by Bowery Presents, a major concert promotion and venue management company. Known for its intimate setting—holding approximately 550 standing or 800 seated attendees—it has hosted performances from a diverse range of artists spanning indie rock, electronic, hip-hop, and jazz genres. The venue’s rectangular layout provides relatively close proximity between performers and audience members contributing to its reputation for energetic live shows.
