Experience The Baylor Project live on July 10th

The Baylor Project is scheduled to perform at Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City on July 10, 2026. The Baylor Project, led by husband-and-wife team Marcus Baylor and Jean Baylor, presents a contemporary jazz sound rooted in swing, bebop, and gospel traditions. Their music frequently incorporates vocal harmonies alongside instrumental virtuosity, drawing influences from artists like Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan while maintaining a distinctly modern sensibility. They are known for energetic performances and arrangements that blend classic jazz elements with contemporary rhythms.

Blue Note Jazz Club opened in 1981, though a previous iteration existed from 1939-1977. It quickly became—and remains—a landmark venue synonymous with jazz music history. The club has hosted nearly every major jazz artist since its inception, including Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, and countless others. Its intimate setting and renowned acoustics contribute to its appeal for both performers and audiences. The club is celebrated for its commitment to preserving the legacy of jazz while also showcasing emerging talent. Photographs of past performers adorn the walls, creating an immersive environment steeped in musical heritage.
