The Cherry Street combo is the premier jazz combo at Knox college, and has hosted jazz every Thursday night in Galesburg for nearly 30 years!  

Directed by Andy Crawford, The Cherry Street Combo is by audition only, but all students and community musicians are encouraged to sit in on Thursday nights at Smokin’ Willies BBQ (161 N Cherry St). The combo performs professionally at various community and college events and the ensemble also tours yearly. Most recently in 2024, the combo released a professionally recorded album, Chameleon available on all streaming services.  In 2019, the combo released Patchwork.
