SUMMARY:Ethnic Heritage Ensemble 2/25 @ Thunderbird Cafe
DESCRIPTION:For only three men, Chicago's Ethnic Heritage Ensemble b
 rings a wealth of history, variety and versatility to the stage. Risin
 g from the 1970s era of Chicago's famed AACM collective, founder and p
 ercussion genius Kahil El Zabar can play just about anything with a me
 mbrane, specializing in African instruments such as shekere, kalimba a
 nd talking drums. He's kept the beat for Dizzy Gillespie, Cannonball A
 dderley, Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon and Nina Simone. Ernest Dawkins, fo
 under of the New Horizons Ensemble, is best known as a saxophonist who
  has worked with Ramsey Lewis, Lester Bowie, Henry Threadgill, and Jer
 ry Butler. A composer and teacher, Dawkins splits his time between the
  Windy City, Paris and Durban, South Africa. Finally, trumpeter Corey 
 Wilkes replaced the late Lester Bowie in the Art Ensemble of Chicago, 
 and has collaborated with contemporary jazz icons Wynton Marsalis and 
 Roy Hargrove and neo-soul artists Meshell Ndegeocello and Soulive. Rec
 ording for such labels as Delmark, Silkheart and Leo, the EHE now stan
 ds proudly in its fourth decade as one of the longest continuously pla
 ying groups in the genre of progressive jazz. Tickets $20 at the door.
 \n$16 advance at Sound Cat Records, Caliban Books, Dave's Music Mine, 
 The Exchange Downtown, The Exchange Squirrel Hill, and online at the T
 hunderbird Cafe website. \n\nFor more information visit https://jazzb
