The set kicks off with a 35-minute burn by a powerhouse ensemble led by two local legends: trumpeter, arranger, and composer Dick Behrke and the East End’s own alto sax firebrand, John Ludlow. Backed by a driving rhythm section, this quintet will pay homage to the 100th birthday celebrations of the titans themselves: Miles Davis and John Coltrane.

Influenced by years spent in the Hamptons’ uniquely relaxed and refined culture, Jesse’s approach to brand-building is all about capturing a feeling: the blend of ease, taste, and connection that defines a perfect summer day out East.
