One Night in Indy is a live album released in 2016 by Resonance Records that features Wes Montgomery and the Eddie Higgins Trio and comprises recordings made in 1959. The album was a promotion for Record Store Day[2] and has received positive reviews.

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 out of five stars, citing the exciting tempo and the "mellow yet lively interplay" between musicians as strengths while criticizing the quality of the audio.[1] Writing for JazzTimes, Colin Fleming praised Montgomery's virtuosity and Higgins' piano work.[3] In PopMatters, John Paul awarded the recording 7/10, agreeing that the stars are Higgins and Montgomery, summing up, "Hearing these two giants together, while not quite at the level of Coltrane and Monk, is nonetheless a thrillingly enjoyable spectacle."[4]
