About Emerging Improvisers

The Emerging Improvisers Organization, based in Chicago, is a not-for-profit group dedicated to nurturing creativity, experimentation and artistic growth among the city's jazz musicians. Toward this end, we sponsor, organize, and promote live events that showcase local and nationally known talent representing a wide spectrum of jazz styles.

Most prominent of the group's efforts is the Sunday Transmission series held at The Hungry Brain. Each week, the series presents jazz artists from Chicago and beyond, reflecting styles that range from improvised folk to free jazz.

Periodically, The Emerging Improvisers Organization stages live performances at other venues in the city.
