John Ellis Heroes Quintet: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About John Ellis Heroes Quintet

John Ellis Heroes Quintet is a five-piece jazz group led by saxophonist and composer John Ellis, presented in New York City at Dizzy’s Club. Built around Ellis’s writing and his role as a working bandleader, the ensemble highlights tight arrangements alongside open space for improvisation. Its sound draws on modern jazz language with touches that nod to big band and Brazilian jazz traditions. The performances favor structure and clear ensemble interplay over display.
