Indy Jazz Fest

09/17/2026

What is Indy Jazz's legacy on today's stages?

JJ played in the famous 1949 Birth of the Cool nonet. Hubbard famously filled Davis's shoes in the V.S.O.P. Quintet, an all-star band consisting of Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams; And Wes, well—his résumé is legendary. But it is worth adding that Montgomery's most iconic live albums were recorded entirely with the 1959–1963 Miles Davis rhythm section: Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and our very own Jimmy Cobb on drums…

Indy Jazz Fest is about honoring the past, and the Indianapolis Jazz Collective brings us the best talent to represent that legacy.

IJF 2026 is presented by Citizens Energy Group .
