Hailed by Jazz Times as a “force and voice to be heard and understood,” English honed his bebop skills at Georgia State University, where he was selected as one of its “40-Under-40 Influential and Innovative” honorees. He has earned two Global Peace Song Awards (2018 and 2020) and has been named to lists of the year’s best by both JAZZIZ Magazine and The Huffington Post.


The February 13th Jazz at All Saints’ Concert takes place in the sanctuary of All Saints’ Episcopal Church beginning at 7:00 p.m. It will be followed by a Q&A with Jazz at All Saints’ Artistic Director Virginia Schenck and a reception in the Parish House.
