🎷 Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series. In this episode, we talk with legendary percussionist Bill Summers of The Headhunters about their 2025 Kansas City trip—a monumental weekend of jazz, funk, and soul. Bill, an Afro-Cuban and Latin jazz percussionist and multi-instrumentalist, has traveled the globe and spent over 50 years with The Headhunters, shaping the sound of modern jazz fusion.

The celebration kicks off Sunday, August 31 with an exclusive Q&A panel featuring the original band members, followed by a live performance at The Ship on Monday, September 1. We explore the magic of Anita Dixon’s vision, Bill’s global musical journeys, the band’s history, and the wisdom he’s gained through decades of groundbreaking music.
