SUMMARY:Makaya McCraven
DESCRIPTION:Drummer\, composer\, and producer Makaya McCraven returns as part of the 2025–26 cohort of SFJAZZ Resident Artistic Directors for four nights revisiting his In These Times ensemble featuring his core group\, plus strings and special guests. Each performance will vary in approach and repertoire\, recorded live and later creatively reworked for a future album release. \nIt’s not an exaggeration to say that Paris-born\, Chicago-based McCraven has powerful grooves and a passion for deep-water musical exploration in his blood. The son of free jazz luminary Stephen McCraven (Yusef Lateef\, Sam Rivers\, Archie Shepp)\, Makaya McCraven has assimilated the seemingly disparate\, yet inextricably tied\, influences of post-Coltrane jazz and hip-hop’s most experimental fringes into a unique multi-dimensional approach – a sonic signature that marries live performances with electronic manipulation and looping into a gritty\, uncompromising\, and seamless whole. \nInfo & Tickets
