Ensi kertaa Suomeen saapuva The Baylor Project on yksi tämän hetken tavoitelluimmista jazzesiintyjistä. Kuusi vuotta sitten Yellowjackets -yhtyeen rumpali Marcus Baylor perusti The Baylor Projectin vaimonsa, laulaja Jean Baylorin kanssa. Elegantti ja tasapainoinen sekoitus jazzia, gospelia, bluesia ja soulia on tuonut yhtyeen kolmelle albumille yhteensä kuusi Grammy-ehdokkuutta muun muassa parhaan vokaalijazzalbumin ja parhaan perinteisen R&B-esityksen kategorioissa. The Baylor Projectin live-esitykset ovat kirvoittaneet yleisön raikuviin suosionosoituksiin niin maailman suurilla festivaalilavoilla kuin intiimeillä jazzklubeilla.
