Details:
Jalen Baker is a Houston-based vibraphonist, composer and bandleader shaping a modern take on jazz. Rooted in both classical training and jazz tradition, his music moves between swing, contemporary jazz and improvisation-driven forms.
Jalen and his quartet return to our intimate listening room with songs from RePaved, a new album centered on the history of Houston’s Third, Fourth and Fifth Wards. The music reflects the people, events and cultural shifts that shaped these communities, with compositions inspired by figures like John Henry Yates and the legacy of Juneteenth.
