Jason Rigby
Born:
Some musicians seem born with sound in their bones. Jason Rigby is one of them.
Born on a U.S. Naval base in Yokosuka, Japan, to a Navy family with deep Sicilian and Irish roots, Jason had already lived in Hawaii and Texas before his family landed in Cleveland, Ohio, when he was just five. But it wasn’t geography that shaped his path—it was sound.
One evening, when Jason was ten, while tuning into an Indians baseball game on the radio, something on the local jazz station stopped him cold. It was Coleman Hawkins’ legendary 1939 recording of Body and Soul. “That sound stopped me in my tracks,” Jason remembers. “I knew that was where I wanted to exist—inside that huge sound and soulful playing.” And from that moment, the saxophone wasn’t just an instrument—it was home.
