Hey Chicago! I’ll be presenting a concert at the First Unitarian Church in Hyde Park on Saturday, April 11th! We’d love to see you there! The band will feature pianist Brandon Harper, bassist John Tate, and drummer Kyle Swan! We will play one set at 730PM! Come through!
Fun times In NYC (couple weeks late posting this sorry) Didint think I would win 2 awards, shake Wynton's hand twice and hear Jeff Tain Watts sing all in the span of 5 days. Should probably quit while im ahead lol.
On a real note it was an honor playing with the Northwestern University Jazz Orchestra at JALC'S National Collegiate Jazz Championship and get to see some friends from way back in the day while also meeting some new friends as well. Thanks yall for making this a special experience.
Hats off to 2025
What a fun year. Traveled to new places, met some new friends and made some incredible music. Thank you all again for making this year a wonderful one and looking forward to what comes next
To say that Ravinia was fun is an understatement. It was one of the best things that could happen to me up to this point. I am beyond grateful to meet so many of these great musicians and teachers who have done nothing my inspire me the whole week of this program. I hope I can see all of yall in the future. Thank you @billychildspiano@reid_rufus , @stevewilsonsax and @steansmusicinstitute for the incredible opportunity.
