For the 4th summer FBIP brings music to the beautiful waterfront in Bushwick Inlet Park with our Summer Music in BIP 2024 series. Come take in a skyline river sunset on the 86 Kent shoreline esplanade while absorbing great musical vibes from multiple genres.
The Jazz Foundation of America presents Gerry Eastman Quintet.
Gerry Eastman is a Brooklyn-based guitarist, bassist, composer, and entrepreneur who has worked with greats like Sarah Vaughan, Count Basie, Etta James, and the Isley Brothers. His distinctive avant-garde jazz, funk, and soul stylings attract fellow musicians and the jazz community to his live appearances, especially at the Williamsburg Music Center, which he founded 42 years ago. The only black-owned jazz club in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, WMC is a musical laboratory and club that fosters young artists and hosts popular Friday and Saturday night jam sessions.
Friends of Bushwick Inlet Park is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council.
