Patience Higgins


Patience Higgins and The Sugar Hill Band. If you like your jazz uptempo and overflowing with vitality, look no farther. Patience Higgins is a cooking, muscular-toned tenorman somewhere between Coleman Hawkins and Sonny Rollins—a musician great enough to have toured with Ellington, David Murray and Stevie Wonder. Add in the excitement the Sugar Hill Band and you’ll hear why this band’s been packing them in Harlem every week for years. CMJ raved about their Mapleshade CD Live in Harlem, “…the most energetic jazz jam since the Kansas City soundtrack … captures the enthusiasm and the excitement.”  Hear Patience Higgins and the Sugar Hill Band Live at PJS!
