Immanuel Wilkins is a jazz saxophonist, composer, and bandleader from Upper Darby in greater Philadelphia. He is possessed of a round, warm, emotionally powerful tone, informed not only by the jazz tradition but gospel as well. Since his late teens, he has been a first-call touring sideman for a remarkable variety of artists including Jason Moran, Gretchen Parlato, Solange, Bob Dylan, and Wynton Marsalis. Though the alto is his primary horn, he is adept on both soprano and tenor. In the studio he's worked as a sideman with bassists Ben Wolfe and Harish Raghavan, and vibraphonist Joel Ross. In 2020, Wilkins released the Moran-produced Omega, his leader debut for Blue Note, followed by The 7th Hand in 2022. In 2024, he released Blues Blood with his trio and special guests.
Immanuel Wilkins has also released music as a member of Out Of/Into.
