Multi-instrumentalist and composer Roxy Coss is breaking boundaries on today's music scene.

New York City based musician Roxy Coss is making a name for herself as a versatile, original voice within the vibrant and thriving jazz scene today. “Coss is head and shoulders above many of the gifted, well- schooled young people who are trying to get a toehold in the intensely competitive NYC jazz and improvised music scenes. Her multiple talents are worthy of wider recognition, right now.” - All About Jazz.

Originally from Seattle, WA, Roxy graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2008 from William Paterson University's Jazz Studies Program with a Bachelor of Music degree. She has gone on from there to perform with the likes of Clark Terry, Claudio Roditi, the DIVA Jazz Orchestra, and the SMOKE Big Band. Her own group has played at such venues as Cecil's Jazz Club, Shrine, the Local 269, and her weekly Monday gig at 181 Cabrini. Roxy will be a featured guest in this year's Earshot Jazz Festival, and will be releasing her self-titled debut album in October 2010.
