Dwight Adams
Dwight Adams, Stevie Wonder's longtime trumpeter and one of Detroit's brightest jazz stars, plays two sets at Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor on Friday, January 29, 2027, at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. Cover is $25, and you can reserve a table.
Dwight Adams has toured the world with Stevie Wonder for over two decades, but he's been lighting up Detroit's best clubs even longer. He's a soul-driven jazz trumpeter who didn't pick up the horn until junior year of high school and landed his first gig at 16.
He's played and recorded with Marcus Belgrave, Rodney Whitaker and James Carter, and has been with the Columbus Jazz Orchestra since 2003. In 2015 he joined the Detroit Bop Quintet at United Sound Studio to recreate Charlie Parker's historic recordings. He also teaches at Wayne State University.
Sets start at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.
