Thank you to Berks Jazz Fest for two Incredible Jazz-filled Weekends!
We’re exhausted but it feels so good! Here are Highlights from the Festival!
BERKS JAZZ FEST 2026! Our Artists, Tim & Carl hit the perfect notes both weekends!
TIM HUTSON performed 16 events during the Berks Jazz Fest!
-
Tim Hutson is a first-call drummer, recording artist, and songwriter with years of experience playing alongside top talent. Known for his pocket and ability to quickly master any artist’s music, he’s as talented as he is easy to work with. He plays with Maysa Leak and Gerald Veasley regularly.
Now focused on performing his own music worldwide, his latest single “Lessons Learned” is gaining traction. “Mind Over Matter” charted at 17 when it was released. Favorites like “Movin”, “Wednesday CC” and “Live and Laugh”
-
Mike Phillips, Maysa Leak, and Carl Cox, Jr. together after an incredible show. Mike and Maysa both gave Carl the opportunity to play a solo piece on a song during their performances. Encouraging Carl to continue with his solo career. Tim Hutson was on drums of course!
-
We met Ravi Coltrane after Ravi performed with Marcus Miller, honoring his father John Coltrane, Miles Davis and David Sanborn. Tim told Ravi about growing up near the Coltrane house in Philadelphia. Ravi was tickled to hear about his knowledge of the Coltrane family, and legacy in Philadelphia.
