About Messengers of Jazz
Messengers of Jazz is a working ensemble led by drummer and bandleader Carl Allen, formed in the lineage of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. In New York City, the group appears at Dizzy’s Club with a repertory that treats the Messengers’ book as living material rather than period re-creation. The lineup is built around the collective model Blakey championed, with space for individual voices inside tight ensemble shapes. Their performances favor swing discipline and direct phrasing over showmanship.
