The UTPB Jazz Kettle will be hosting internationally celebrated musicians Willie Murillo and James Morrison for a concert on Monday, March 3, 2025. This will be an event that will benefit students at UTPB, Odessa College, and Midland College, as well as community members. The Guest Artists will rehearse with community and college musicians on Sunday night, speak to groups and individuals in private lessons and Master Classes on Monday, and perform with jazz band members from UTPB, OC, MC and the greater Permian Basin community that evening at the Wagner Noel Performing Arts Center.The magnitude of this experience cannot be overstated. Willie Murillo is an LA based trumpeter, singer, arranger, and producer who visited UTPB last year for a similar residence. Everyone who was associated with that rehearsal/performance 2-day event left the experience exhilarated and edified. James Morrison is an Australia based multi-instrumentalist who has been called “the Genius of Jazz”. He and Mr. Murillo will be on multi-state tour across the nation, and they are looking forward to spending a few days in the Permian Basin before moving on to other tour dates and locations.
