Every June, the bluenotenyc’s flagship location in Greenwich Village becomes the nexus of a month-long celebration of the United States’ first artform and its African roots. The 2024 Jazz Festival featured artists that came from every corner of the solar system — Brooklyn, Harlem, Agadez, Bali, São Paulo, Saturn — and ranged in age from teens to centenarians, featuring sunraarkestraofficial, mulatuastatke1, and more. Once the dust settled in the wake of the month-long extravaganza, we reached out to our favorite Blue Note Jazz Fest artists to hear about their experience of this year’s festival.
