Concerts in the Cabin! Two concerts to choose from: Enjoy an afternoon or evening jazz concert with guitarist A. Spencer Barefield, vocalist Isis Damil and bassist Marion Hayden in the intimacy and magic of the historic Palmer Park Log Cabin.

Isis is the daughter of two fine jazz musicians, including her dad Zion Israel (who has performed on the MIH series). Her DNA must be infused with music, propelling a merger of her classical training with jazz, funk, fusion, neo-soul, scat, rap and R&B. Only in her twenties, her voice has the depth, richness and passion of someone decades older.

This young lady will knock your socks off — she is powerful,  tender and everything in between, bending notes and emotions just so exquisitely! Isis has appeared regularly at Bakers Keyboard Lounge, as well as at the Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe, Cliff Bell’s, and other top jazz venues in the Detroit area. She has also performed on the Palmer Woods Music in Homes series.

Bassist Marion Hayden and guitarist A. Spencer Barefield are international jazz legends with resumes that extend for miles. Their mastery will provide a synergy of sensational sound to this historic concert space.

The Log Cabin, a Victorian home on the interior covered with rustic logs on the exterior, is one of Detroit’s most significant landmarks and architectural treasures. Built in 1885 for Senator Thomas Palmer and his wife Lizzie Merrill Palmer, it was donated to the city of Detroit in 1893 along with land that we now know as Palmer Park. The other extensive portion of the Palmer estate is now residential areas, including Palmer Woods. The Log Cabin is being lovingly restored by the nonprofit People for Palmer Park and the City of Detroit.
