Marquis Hill

New Gospel Revisited

07/16/2022 7:00 pm

Due to unforeseen circumstances this event has been cancelled. Please check our full lineup for other events HERE.

Marquis Hill took first prize in the 2014 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Trumpet Competition. A couple of months later he was reviewed in concert for the New York Times. But Chicago knew him first. Hill, who grew up on the South Side, came up through that city's jazz infrastructure, availing himself of resources both institutional and informal. His first album, New Gospel, was released in 2011. It was a surefooted effort that updated some Young Lion-ish conventions for the millennial cohort and marked Hill as a bandleader and composer to watch. Now, a decade into his broadminded solo career, Hill has decided to revisit that touchstone – bringing a new set of peers and proficiencies. New Gospel Revisited came out on Edition Record in March (2022). "New Gospel was my debut album and my first completed production," Hill explains in an artist statement. "To revisit this music in a fresh way, with a new band has been uniquely invigorating – and hugely rewarding."
