Everything Yes
A North Carolina based jazz-fusion group makes a stop in Memphis at Crosstown Arts on its tour, blending jazz, funk, gospel, progressive rock, and improvisation into a sound that is energetic, playful, and always evolving. Everything Yes is defined by one simple rule: say “yes.” Every idea, every experiment, every spark of inspiration.
