Nick Sample’s All-Star Tribute to Joe Sample
Join Nick Sample’s All-Star Tribute to Joe Sample at DROM on May 16th! Celebrate the jazz legend’s legacy with a powerhouse lineup, deep-rooted grooves, and a mission to uplift local talent. Don’t miss this unforgettable night of music and community.
Nick Sample’s All-Star Tribute to Joe Sample continues with shows here in NYC, Dallas, New Orleans, and London.
This tribute is deeply personal—it's a celebration of my dad, Joe Sample, and the millions of fans and musicians he inspired worldwide. We're also shining a light on the roots of Jazz, Funk, and Blues, which are so deeply tied to his creole culture and Black history. A big part of the show is discovering local talent in each city, bringing them into the All-Star lineup, and sharing that magic globally through live streaming. It's about more than music—it's about building community and keeping this legacy alive.
For years, I have passionately supported musicians. While not everyone achieves pop star status, countless talented artists deserve recognition and sustainable opportunities.
“We are so excited to have NYC’s finest celebrate with us on stage at the DROM. Not only do we grow the community, with fans of Joe Sample and the Crusaders, but we rediscover this bountiful catalog together.”
