David Sanborn

Born:

David Sanborn has released 24 albums, won six Grammy Awards, and has had eight Gold albums and one Platinum. Having inspired countless other musicians, Dave has worked in many genres which typically blend instrumental pop, R&B and traditional jazz. He released his first solo album Taking Off in 1975, but has been playing the saxophone since before he was in high school when he was inspired by the great Chicago blues artists near his hometown of St. Louis.

Having contracted polio at the age of three, Dave was introduced to the saxophone as part of his treatment therapy. By the age of 14, he was able to play with legends such as Albert King and Little Milton. Dave went on to study music at Northwestern University before transferring to the University of Iowa where he played and studied with the great saxophonist JR Monterose.

Michael Dease: Flow

Read "Flow" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Michael Dease is always on the go. A flurry of activity seems to surround the prolific trombonist, composer, bandleader, sideman, educator, and doubler. Yet he's always operating in the moment, never distracted by all of the spinning plates. Dease absolutely personifies the flow state, fully immersing himself in every one of his pursuits. This, his 11th ...

Tom Lyne: Well Mixed Blue

Read "Well Mixed Blue" reviewed by Neil Duggan


Having played together since 1998, bassist Tom Lyne and pianist Dave Milligan have developed what is often described as a 'telepathic' musical connection. Whether it is truly telepathic or not, their intuitive trust and mutual understanding shine brightly throughout Lyne's album, Well Mixed Blue. The duo (along with drummer Tom Bancroft) has a long ...

Gil Evans Remembered: Gil Evans Remembered (Live At The Cutting Room, NYC)

Read "Gil Evans Remembered (Live At The Cutting Room, NYC)" reviewed by Jack Kenny


Few people have a better right to remember Gil Evans than these musicians. The serrated wail of this band enraptured, touched and torched the listeners. It is easy to see why musicians from the Monday Night Band would want to play, creating under Evans' beatific musical vision. It must have been inspiring. Most of the musicians ...

Roots to Branches: Broadway, Jazz, and David Bowie?

Read "Roots to Branches: Broadway, Jazz, and David Bowie?" reviewed by Kurt Ellenberger


In 10th grade, I had a classmate in my French class named Morvan, whom I didn't know at all (in fact, I doubt I ever ever talked to her). She was quiet and introverted but also somewhat defiant and aloof. She always dressed in what was quite outlandish fashion at the time. She was somewhere in ...

JD Souther: You're Only Lonely

Read "You're Only Lonely" reviewed by Doug Collette


JD Souther might well be considered the unsung hero of country rock as we know it. Forget for the moment the ill-conceived and woefully mis-executed David Geffen vanity project that was Souther, Hillman and Furay: his early alliance in Longbranch Pennywhistle, with the late Glenn Frey, co-founder of the Eagles, led to Souther's collaborations with that ...

Umbria Jazz 2024

Read "Umbria Jazz 2024" reviewed by Libero Farnè


Varie sedi Umbria Jazz 2024 Perugia 12--21 luglio 2024 Partecipare a Umbria Jazz significa per me affrontare un'esperienza non solo frastornante, per la molteplicità di stimoli che si ricevono nei diversi luoghi della città e in ogni ora del giorno, ma anche anomala, per certi versi schizofrenica. Da un lato ci ...

45th Annual Tri-C JazzFest

Read "45th Annual Tri-C JazzFest" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


45th Annual Tri-C JazzFest Playhouse Square Cleveland, Ohio June 20-22, 2024 It has become somewhat of a reoccurring quip on social media to lament that so many so-called jazz festivals have booked acts that stray far from the jazz genre to keep these events afloat financially. Cleveland's Tri-C JazzFest has certainly ...
