Live Wednesdays: Elijah Balbed & the East Coast Collective

Saxophonist and composer Elijah Jamal Balbed is an award-winning saxophonist in the Washington, DC area. A native of Silver Spring, Elijah attended Howard University from 2008-2011 and was the featured soloist in the Howard University Jazz Ensemble (HUJE). While at Howard, the Washington City Paper named him the Best New Jazz Musician (2010) and also recently named him Best Tenor Saxophonist (2013). Elijah has a keen sense for networking, and decided to use these skills to assemble a collective of musicians from all along the east coast, aptly titled, the East Coast Collective. This concert will feature musicians from Baltimore, DC, and New York. For more information go to www.elijahjamalbalbed.com.
