Jamile Quartet
Mezzrow161 West 10th Street, New York 10014
Jamile Quartet is billed for a late-night appearance at Mezzrow in Manhattan on November 29. The billing specifies a quartet, but does not name the individual players or describe a particular project, guest, release, tribute, or repertoire for the set. The performance takes place in Mezzrow’s compact basement room, where listeners sit close to the musicians and can follow the small details of a jazz-group conversation. The venue has a bar rather than a full kitchen, keeping the focus on the performance.
Beyond the quartet name, the available information offers no biographical background for Jamile Quartet: no hometown, personnel, recordings, collaborators, musical history, or critical descriptions are given. That leaves the night defined by the group’s billed formation and Mezzrow’s listening-room setup rather than by a documented résumé. Mezzrow is part of a foundation supporting jazz artists and is a regular Manhattan room for focused performances; its evenings commonly run in two sets, and the venue’s late hours can continue with vinyl or jam sessions after scheduled music. For this booking, however, no further evening details are listed.
