Jonathan Powell

Born: February 15, 1982

Recently voted "Best Latin Jazz Trumpet Player of 2009" (Latin Jazz Corner), young lion Jonathan Powell can not so easily be defined.

Jazz guru Nat Hentoff first wrote of Jonathan's playing "Powell's crackling range and the electricity of his imagination reminded me of the first time I heard Lee Morgan and Clifford Brown. His voice is his own..." -JazzTimes (April 2003). Through such contrasting musical collaborations, Jonathan's original music was born of diverging influences... his group nu Sangha was born.

Michel Navedo Quartet

Born: March 30, 1970

Michel Navedo's style fuses the New Orleans tradition with which he was raised, with the music of his Puerto Rican heritage, to achieve a sound that is all his own. With such a rich musical background in which to grow up, Michel took to the trumpet at age 9 and began his quest for enlightenment and fulfillment through the art of song. Studied in Jazz, Afro Cuban, Brazllian, Classical, and Composition, Michel Navedo's focus on his instrument lies in song craft and improvisation. Look forward to an incredible Jazz release this year from Michel, "New Orleans On My Mind". Bringing a heart felt and lyrical approach to some smoky originals, the album's sultry southern swing is both elegant and eloquent
