For a young trumpet player, New Orleans native son Irvin Mayfield is a busy man, yet in a particularly interesting way. He performs in a variety of groups, which isn't out of the ordinary for a working musician these days. But he also serves — with great pleasure, mind you — as a cultural ambassador, not only for his city of New Orleans, but for jazz music.

Mayfield, 27, believes in the art form he learned in the Big Easy, and he isn't afraid to put his time and effort where his mouth is.

Join Irvin Mayfield and the 16-piece New Orleans Jazz Orchestra for a dynamic evening of some of the best Jazz you'll ever hear on the State Theatre stage.
