Give the Drummer Some 12th annual concert!

  • Sharp Nine Gallery 4608 Industry Lane Durham, NC, 27713 United States (map)

Thomas presents the 12th annual “Give the Drummer Some” benefit concert for the NCCU Jazz studies program! Our featured artist this year is North Carolina Education and drumming legend David Albert!  This year I want to continue to celebrate the 100th birthday of Max Roach (Pasquotank, NC born) by honoring the classic record Rich vs. Roach. 

All proceeds will go to the Jazz Studies scholarship fund. The concert is $40.00 and the series of workshops (5 different presentations) are $25.00, tickets can be purchased at the link:
