Anton Kot

Born: 2002

Twenty-one-year-old drummer, pianist, gamelanist, and composer, Anton Kot, captivates
audiences with his multifaceted sound. Described as a musician with “composers wit”
(Paul Rauch, All About Jazz), he is known for performing original works that combine
elements of contemporary genres with the jazz idiom.

Born in New York City, Anton grew up with parents who are visual artists and was
surrounded by the creatives residing in Williamsburg during the early years of his life.
His parents started him on his first drum set when he was just three, and piano lessons
when he was four. At the time, he composed a piano piece titled Snowstorm after
watching the composer Philip Glass perform at the nearby venue, Roulette. Anton finds
that his early exposure to the arts widened his musical pallet as a child.
