We are exited to welcome the Brad Goode Quintet to the 2025 KHJF as our headline act performing on Saturday evening, October 11.
First sharing a stage in the early 2010's, the virtuostic trumpeter Brad Goode and legendary saxophonist Ernie Watts met and instantly realized their incredible musical rapport. Since that day, they have been touring together and exciting audiences with their high energy, tight-rope style improvisations. With the explosive Adam Nussbaum on drums, New York bassist Jay Anderson and the inventive Toronto pianist Adrean Farrugia, Goode and Watts create musical fire and have a lot of fun doing it. The Brad Goode Quintet featuring Ernie Watts has made concert appearances internationally and has recorded for the Origin and Delmark record labels.
Brad Goode:
“The lyrical genius of the trumpet” - Chicago Tribune
Ernie Watts:
"He is one of the greatest living tenor saxophonists, at the top of his game.”- All About Jazz
Adam Nussbaum:
For four decades, he has been a reliably swinging fixture on the scene, providing the syncopated pulse for a variety of artists, including John Scofield, Michael Brecker, Gil Evans, John Abercrombie, Eliane Elias, Stan Getz, James Moody, Dave Liebman and many others. - Downbeat
This appearance of XO Brass Artist Brad Goode and Sonor Drums artist Adam Nussbaum has been made possible, in part, through an educational grant from the KHS American Academic Alliance, XO Professional Brass, and Sonor Drums. Brad performs exclusively on XO trumpets. Adam performs exclusively on Sonor drums.
