Step back into 1959 — the year jazz tore up the script and swaggered into history. Miles Davis dropped Kind of Blue. Brubeck unleashed Time Out. New grooves, new ideas, new bravado.Neil Maya Quartet aren’t just playing the music of this golden year — they’re unpacking it. Between killer tunes, Neil lifts the lid on why ’59 was the moment jazz got fearless, fresh and seriously inventive. Expect bold rhythms, cool curves and off-the-leash improvisation.
Whether you’re jazz-curious or already deep in the groove, this is your chance to feel the mind-blowing year that changed everything. Listen, learn but mostly enjoy!
