The Tampa Jazz Club takes a break from holding shows at Hillsborough Community College in Ybor CIty, and is moving into New Tampa for the release of the seventh album from Jack Wilkins, a saxophonist in charge of the University of South Florida’s jazz department.

Acadian Rhythms was inspired by Wilkins’ time as an artist-in-residence in Maine two years ago, and an 11-piece repertoire will back him, along with Elements co-founder-slash-drummer Danny Gottlieb as a special guest.

Tickets to see Jack Wilkins play New Tampa Performing Arts Center in Tampa on Thursday, April 4 are still available and start at $10.
