Acute Inflections, the New York City–based jazz and R&B duo known for their smooth sound and magnetic stage presence, are bringing their acclaimed live show to Jackson on Sunday, March 1, at The Shirley Theater inside Jackson Medical Mall. With past features on HBO and Amazon, the duo has earned national attention for performances that blend musical excellence with theatrical charm.
This Jackson appearance offers more than a concert. The evening is styled as an intimate, candlelit experience inspired by the Harlem Renaissance, seamlessly paired with modern flair. The result is a soulful, immersive atmosphere that feels both timeless and fresh. Fans of Erykah Badu and Billie Holiday will recognize the emotional depth, storytelling, and effortless cool that define Acute Inflections’ sound.
Audiences can expect dynamic duets, sharp comedic moments, and spontaneous freestyles that keep each performance feeling personal and alive. The chemistry between the two artists is undeniable, creating a relaxed yet polished show that invites listeners into their world rather than performing at them.
Beyond the music, the event carries a meaningful purpose. Proceeds from every ticket sold will support the Renaissance Youth Center, a South Bronx nonprofit dedicated to empowering inner-city youth through music education and after-school programs. Complimentary snacks and refreshments will be available throughout the evening, adding to the warm, welcoming environment.
The Shirley Theater provides an ideal backdrop for this Roaring Twenties–inspired revival, offering a culturally rich space that complements the duo’s unplugged, vintage-meets-modern aesthetic.
