The Music of Sonny Rollins is a live jazz tribute performed by Mark McKergow Quartet and Porter Jones at The Club Room during Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026. Saxophonist Mark McKergow and his band are joined by American trombonist Porter Jones for a dive into music from the nineteen-fifties onwards, celebrating the joyful, exciting and soulful music of Sonny Rollins, whose eight decade career took him from Harlem to the White House. Caribbean influences sit alongside the whole range of jazz styles. The show runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A live celebration of Sonny Rollins' soulful, Caribbean-inflected jazz — the addition of American trombonist Porter Jones to the quartet mirrors Rollins' own band setup, making this a thoughtfully assembled tribute rather than a generic covers set.
