July 6 Gregory Porter in concert at the 2024 San Javier Jazz Festival
One of the most recognizable voices in current music at the open-air auditorium of Parque Almansa in San Javier
TICKETS ARE NOW ON SALE ONLINE HERE for both season tickets and individual concerts.
Of all the stars appearing at the 26th edition of the San Javier Jazz Festival in June and July 2024 one of those which shone most brightly is Gregory Porter.
Few voices today are more recognizable than the his warm baritone and on the borders between jazz, soul and gospel, his music covers various styles without for a moment losing its very high level of quality or its innate capacity to move the listener. Gregory admires great singers like Nat King Cole, Donny Hathaway, Joe Williams and Stevie Wonder his style is influenced by all of them perhaps more than anyone by Nat King Cole. This is apparent in his fantastic 2017 album “Nat King Cole & Me.”
With a quintet of excellent musicians accompanying him, Gregory Porter offers a tour of his greatest hits: a great opportunity to enjoy the art and the wonderful baritone voice of the best male jazz singer of our days.
