In a Heartbeat is an album by American jazz drummer Whit Dickey recorded in 2004 and released on the Portuguese Clean Feed label. For this record, Dickey expanded to a quintet consisting of the quartet with whom he recorded Big Top, with the addition of trumpeter Roy Campbell. The band plays four Dickey compositions and the Carla Bley original "Calls".
In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow states "The reason that this outing is a success is that the musicians are quite skilled, listen closely to each other, and make memorable music out of very open originals."
The Penguin Guide to Jazz observes that "Brown sounds as if he's looking for extremes which don't really suit him. But some passages offer gripping and wholly absorbing playing."
