Adam and Raine are gearing up for the next stage of their relationship. All plans are derailed when Adam suffers a family tragedy, causing to revert back to the only coping mechanism that worked as a kid: talking to his imaginary friends. As he navigates his inner turmoil, it’s clear that there isn’t room for everyone, and is forced to make a choice on who is really there for him; the love of his life or his imaginary friends.

Eastern Boundary Quartet brings its vibrant blend of American avant-garde jazz and Hungarian ethno-folk traditions to Kerrytown Concert House! Formed by acclaimed New York artists Joe Fonda (bass) and Michael Jefry Stevens (piano), together with Hungarian master musicians Balázs Bagyi (drums) and Mihály Borbély (saxophone), this ensemble creates a cultural bridge between two rich musical worlds. Their long-standing collaboration, rooted in friendship, respect, and the shared language of improvisation, infuses every performance with energy and authenticity. With powerful personalities from both the New York jazz scene and Central/Eastern Europe, the quartet’s sound is bold, imaginative, and deeply expressive.

Kerrytown Concert House is proud to partner with the Southeastern Michigan Jazz Association (SEMJA) to celebrate Detroit jazz historian and author, Lars Bjorn, at this year’s Ron Brooks Award Concert. Named for SEMJA’s founder, the Ron Brooks Award honors individuals who have made significant contributions to the Detroit jazz community as performers and educators.

For the last dozen years, Lars Bjorn has served as the president of SEMJA, supporting the music in many ways: as a scholar, teacher, interviewer, writer, and panelist, collaborating with the major local jazz festivals, and informally advising the Kerrytown Concert House from the very beginnings of its jazz offerings. Bjorn has been widely celebrated, together with his co-author Jim Gallert, for Before Motown, the pioneering widely praised first major history of jazz in Detroit, the culmination of years of research, including numerous in-depth musician interviews that are now archived for future use. For many years, Lars was a sociology professor at the University of Michigan, Dearborn, teaching courses on Detroit and its music. To mark the occasion, an outstanding lineup of area jazz musicians will take the stage in tribute, performing the music that Bjorn has spent a lifetime championing. Featured artists include bassist Paul Keller, pianist Adam Mosley, guitarist Ralph Tope, drummer Jesse Kramer, and more.

Join us in honoring Lars Bjorn and the music that he champions and loves. Get your tickets today!
