He has collaborated with a number of notable artists\, including Prince\, Thom Yorke\, McCoy Tyner\, Marcus Miller\, Flea\, Eddie Palmieri\, Robert Glasper\, rappers Mos Def (Yasin Bey)\, Talib Kweli\, as well as heralded poet and musician Saul Williams.

SUMMARY:LOUIS HAYES & THE CANNONBALL LEGACY BAND
DESCRIPTION:Jeremy Pelt – trumpet | Vincent Herring – alto saxophone | Rick Germanson – piano | Kenny Davis – bass | Louis Hayes – drums\n\nLiving legend Louis Hayes returns with the incredible Cannonball Legacy Band with trumpeter Jeremy Pelt\, also saxophonist Vincent Herring\, pianist Rick Germanson\, and bassist Kenny Davis. “Hayes’ drumming is as superb and as youthful as ever.” writes All About Jazz. Born and raised in Detroit\, Hayes moved to New York in 1956 to replace Arthur Taylor in the Horace Silver Quintet; he recorded five classic Blue Note albums with Silver before joining Cannonball Adderley in 1959 for an equally momentous six-year stint. The drummer’s remarkable career also includes extended stays with the legendary trios of Oscar Peterson and McCoy Tyner and\, more recently\, with this esteemed group\, the Cannonball Legacy Band\, which he co-founded.\n\n“Drummer Louis Hayes elevates the music from within\, using finesse and hip nuance rather than playing on top of it with overt chops.”

SUMMARY:KEYON HARROLD
DESCRIPTION:Jazz St. Louis Creative Advisor and Ferguson native Keyon Harrold returns home to present his brand new commission to close our ’23/24 Season! This season grand finale will see the illustrious musician debut Jazz St. Louis’ much-anticipated\, first-ever solo-commissioned work\, written to reflect Keyon’s experiences during his  momentous three-year appointment with Jazz St. Louis. Do not miss Harrold take the stage to share with the world a new work that promises to be unique and thoughtful. \nHarrold grew up one of sixteen children in a family that prioritized music and community across generations. His grandfather was a police officer who retired to found a drum and bugle corps for local youth\, both of his parents were pastors\, and nearly all of his siblings sing and perform music to this day. At eighteen\, the McCluer High School alum left Ferguson for New York City to enroll in The New School. In New York\, he landed his first major gig with Common\, an audition he secured on the recommendation of his New School classmate Robert Glasper\, and an experience which he says broadened his musical horizons beyond jazz to include funk\, Afrobeat\, R&B\, and hip hop. Harrold was soon performing with stars like Snoop Dogg\, Jay Z\, Beyonce\, Mac Miller\, Rihanna\, Eminem\, Maxwell\, Anthony Hamilton\, and Chaka Khan. \nHarrold has been key in advancing community engagement and broadening our organization’s audience of ardent jazz appreciators. Whether Jazz St. Louis patrons are harmonizing to a soothing rendition of the Bee Gees tune “How Deep Is Your Love” live with PJ Morton\, or soaring with inspiration from a Whitaker Jazz Speaks exploration of how hip hop radiated from an iconic disco sample\, many indelible memories are being made during Harrold’s extraordinary tenure. This boundary-expanding partnership and commissioned work is all made possible with gracious support from the Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:LE TRIO JOUBRAN

SUMMARY:KRANTZ CARLOCK LEFEBVRE
DESCRIPTION:KCL\, the iconic\, genre-bending powerhouse trio led by visionary guitaristWayne Krantz and featuring drummer Keith Carlock(Steely Dan\, Sting\, John Mayer) and bassist Tim Lefebvre (Tedeschi Trucks Band\,David Bowie)\, held a Thursday-night residency at NYC’s 55 Bar throughout the first decade of the new millenium. Cutting live recordings from the club and posting them online in the early days of the internet and touring only sporadically\, KCL developed a thoroughly original style of interactive group improvisation inspired in part by the great Miles Davis Quintet of the 60s\, but played out in spontaneously generated contexts of heavy funk\, rock and electronica instead of straight-ahead swing. \nAs other instrumental bands of the day dabbled in derivative fusion and retro-jazz\, KCL became an underground phenomenon\, cultivating an international following of devoted fans of every stripe looking for an alternative creative music that served the mind\, body and spirit. Relentlessly grooving\, always innovative\, never complacent -KCL made contemporary music that resonated beyond category.Other sideman obligations sidelined the band soon after their Abstract Logix release\, “Krantz Carlock Lefebvre\,” in 2010\, but their reputation continued to expand globally through fan circulation of the band’s many live videos and recordings. Now\, in 2020\, KCL re-ignites to tour with incendiary shows throughout the USA\, Europe and Asia.

DESCRIPTION:Russell Malone – guitar | Rick Germanson – piano | Vincent DuPont – drums | Neal Smith – drums \n“Russell Malone has the storytelling skills of a great singer\, perhaps a legacy of his many years with Harry Connick\, Jr. and Diana Krall. – The Times (UK) \nGuitar master Russell Malone leads his popular quartet with pianist Rick Germanson\, bassist Vincent Dupont\, and drummer Neal Smith. Malone is a musician deeply rooted in the blues and bebop\, and his soulfully swinging approach is just one of many reasons why he is so popular. Chicago Tribune states\, “Though he spikes his solos with occasional running lines\, it’s gently rolled chords and lush sequences of harmonies that ultimately define his work\,” and Jazz Times describes him as “an uncommonly sensitive interpreter of ballads.” \n***PLEASE NOTE: All 7PM and 9PM shows at Smoke are Dinner Shows | Fees Apply To All Tickets

SUMMARY:GREGORY PORTER & THE BAYLOR PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed singer-songwriter Gregory Porter was raised in Bakersfield\, California\, and he cites the Bakersfield Southern Gospel sound as well as his mother’s Nat King Cole record collection as fundamental influences on his own sound. In 2013 he released his breakout Blue Note debut Liquid Spirit\, which sold more than a million albums and earned Porter his first Grammy Award\, with NPR declaring him “America’s next great jazz singer.” \nHis 2016 follow-up Take Me to the Alley won Porter his second Grammy for Best Vocal Jazz Album and firmly established him as his generation’s most soulful jazz singer-songwriter. His 2021 release Still Rising collects new songs\, covers\, duets\, and a selection of his much-loved favorite songs. \nFeaturing Jean Baylor and Marcus Baylor\, The Baylor Project is a duo built on love\, family\, faith\, culture\, and community. Their debut\, The Journey\, garnered two Grammy nominations. Their second album\, Generations (2021)\, earned the duo its first NAACP Image Award win for Outstanding Jazz Album-Vocal and its fourth Grammy nomination. \nMarcus and Jean’s combined musicianship is unmatched. Their dynamic performances are soulful to the bone. The Baylors will raise you up and inspire you to clap along with them to a swinging mid-tempo tune. Yet\, at a moments’ notice\, you may be moved to tears when they change the atmosphere with a spiritual song that will stir the emotions.

SUMMARY:LOUIS HERIVEAUX
DESCRIPTION:Heriveaux plays Mood Indigo\, classic sounds inspired by the 1920s. \nAfter graduating from Griffin High School in 1992\, Louis settled in Atlanta\, Georgia.  Louis began playing Jazz on Atlanta’s Jazz scene\, at age 17. Heads began to turn and fellow musicians and club owners began to take notice of his early signs of professionalism and confidence at the piano.  \nAt age 19\, a prominent Jazz guitarist began frequenting jam sessions in Atlanta\, where Louis often sat in. After several visits to the jam session\, it was Russell Malone that hand-picked Louis to join his world-class quartet. Louis graciously accepted the invitation and became an international Jazz musician\, performing with Russell Malone for two years\, on some of the most famous stages Jazz music has ever known.   \nLouis’ time spent with Russell Malone was a pivotal move in his budding career as a Jazz musician. That gig opened doors for other opportunities for this young\, gifted musician. Jazz vocalists began to seek Louis out for his ability to accompany them with an innate ability to assess their needs during a performance and at rehearsals. Vocalist Jeanie Bryson invited Louis to do a Southeast tour with her and he once again hit the road! His finesse on the piano also caught the attention of Nnenna Freelon\, who sought him out as an accompanist for one of her engagements as well.

SUMMARY:JAZZMEIA HORN
DESCRIPTION:Jazzmeia Horn is one of the promising young musicians of the new jazz generation according to Downbeat: the leading jazz magazine  listed her as one of the ’25 for the Future’. The singer from New York is not only influenced by the virtuosic vocal lines and scats of Sarah Vaughan\, but also by the R&B of Mary J. Blige and Erykah Badu\, as well as hip-hop and spoken word. She also developed a talent for composing and arranging by collaborating with the likes of the WDR Big Band and Metropole Orchestra. \nAt the age of three\, Jazzmeia Horn already started singing in a gospel choir. She was allowed to sing with the adults\, as she was too loud for the children’s choir. Since then she has won all the important awards\, including the prestigious Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz International Vocals Competition. She has received compliments from famous colleagues such as Al Jarreau and John Hendricks. She has been compared to legendary singers such as Betty Carter and Sarah Vaughan\, as well as to successful contemporaries such as Gregory Porter and Cécile McLorin Salvant.
