Jeremy Gold

Jeremy Gold began playing alto saxophone at age 10 in Niskayuna, NY. He played in the school jazz ensemble throughout middle school and high school while taking private lessons. After winning the Louis Armstrong Jazz Award, given to the most promising seniors, Jeremy gleaned a scholarship to the prestigious Conservatory of Music at Purchase College, SUNY. While at Purchase, he studied under mentors like Javon Jackson, Ralph Lalama, Todd Coolman, Pete Malinverni, and Ray Vega. He was awarded the opportunity to perform in the university jazz big band and latin jazz ensemble, as well as small jazz ensembles under the direction of Steve Wilson and Hal Galper. Jeremy frequented NYC jam sessions, where he furthered his learning by playing alongside artists such as Roy Hargrove, Robert Glasper, Stacy Dillard, Greg Glassman, and Ambrose Akinmusire. 

After his time at Purchase, Jeremy completed a B.A. in Psychology at SUNY Albany. Post graduation, he taught himself studio production and audio engineering. As a music producer, Jeremy has released work with artists including The Voice finalist Clinton Washington and A$AP Mob’s Young $yrup. 

In 2022, Jeremy returned to his roots as a jazz saxophonist and began gigging in and around Troy, NY. Since then, he has taken the stage with many artists including Joe Barna and Sketches of Influence, Jimmy Madison and Friends, Tarik Shah, Ian MacDonald, and Greg Glassman. Jeremy is also a member of Peter Annello Band, and TSEnsemble, and leads a weekly jazz jam at 518 Craft in Troy, NY.
