SUMMARY:SULLIVAN FORTNER
DESCRIPTION:For the past decade\, Sullivan Fortner has been stretching deep-rooted talents as a pianist\, composer\, band leader and uncompromising individualist. The Grammy Award-winning artist out of New Orleans received international praise as both key player and producer for his collaborative work on The Window (Mack Avenue\, 2018)\, alongside multi-Grammy winner\, vocalist-composer Cecile McLorin Salvant. As a solo leader\, he has released Moments Preserved (Decca\, 2018) and Aria (Impulse!\, 2015) to critical acclaim\, and he’s only getting started. Now based in New York\, Fortner has earned recognition in multiple DownBeat Critics Poll categories\, winning first place in Rising Star Piano and Rising Star Jazz Artist. \nIn addition to associations with such diverse voices as Wynton Marsalis\, Paul Simon\, Diane Reeves\, Etienne Charles and John Scofield\, Fortner’s frequent and longtime collaborators have included Ambrose Akinmusire\, Dee Dee Bridgewater\, Stefon Harris\, Kassa Overall\, Tivon Pennicott\, Peter Bernstein\, Nicholas Payton\, Billy Hart\, Gary Bartz\, Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah\, Fred Hersch and the late Roy Hargrove. Recent collaborations include GRAMMY-nominated releases Dear Love (Empress Legacy) and Generations from leaders Jazzmeia Horn and The Baylor Project\, respectively. \nA highly-sought improviser\, Fortner has performed across the country and throughout the world at such cultural institutions as Snug Harbor\, New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts\, Sweet Lorraine’s and The Jazz Playhouse in New Orleans\, and Jazz at Lincoln Center\, Jazz Standard and Smalls Jazz Club in New York City. He’s appeared at celebrated festivals\, including Newport\, Monterey\, Discover\, Tri-C and Gillmore Keyboard\, among others. In 2019\, Fortner brought his band to the historic Village Vanguard for a week-long engagement he would reprise in 2020 as a virtual performance during lockdown. His notable studio contributions include work on Etienne Charles’s Kaiso (Culture Shock\, 2011)\, Donald Harrison’s Quantum Leap (FOMP\, 2010)\, and Theo Croker’s The Fundamentals (Left Sided Music\, 2007). \nThe Trio: Sullivan Fortner~Piano\, Yasushi Nakamura ~ bass and Kayvon Gordon ~ drums \nTickets: $37.00 fee included
