Big Chief Donald Harrison is a master alto saxophonist who carries the musical spirit of his birthplace, New Orleans, wherever he goes—he is a one-man jazz festival. Honored as an NEA Jazz Master in 2022, Donald is renowned for his hard-swinging improvisational style and the creation of "Nouveau Swing," a blend of jazz with R&B, hip-hop, rock, and soul. His performances traverse all eras of jazz, making him a true advocate for the culture. Enjoy one of the greatest living jazz artists!

Hailing from New Orleans, one of the birthplaces of jazz, Donald Harrison is deeply rooted in its cultural and musical traditions. Influenced by his heritage in the Mardi Gras traditions of New Orleans, he champions an eclectic musical style that brings together African American musical traditions. For him, a tradition-conscious outlook toward the future is not just a cliché but a lived expression of music in the here and now. Whether as a young saxophonist in the legendary Jazz Messengers with drummer Art Blakey, later leading his band with trumpeter Terence Blanchard, collaborating with his nephew Chief Adjuah (Christian Scott) and Mulgrew Miller, or recently performing in a trio with the esteemed Ron Carter and Billy Cobham, Harrison embodies both tradition and innovation. He is ever-curious and serves as a mentor to others.

Dan Kaufman has emerged as a leading and promising young voice in Jazz Piano. Dan’s playing is adventurous and dynamic while firmly rooted in the jazz tradition. As a versatile and sensitive sideman , he has performed for audiences around the world, with many of the most prominent figures in jazz. From Jimmy Heath, Wynton Marsalis, Christian McBride and Mark Turner. He is also an accomplished composer and arranger.

Nori Naraoka is a Japanese-American bassist based in New York. He studied at the Berklee College of Music in Boston and spent some time living in New Orleans. He is one of the most accomplished bassists in the business, performing at renowned festivals around the world. In addition to his work as a professional musician, he is also a producer and an endorser for leading instrument brands. As a musician, he has collaborated with artists such as Nicholas Payton, Allen Toussaint, Jon Batiste, Trombone Shorty, and many more.

Joe Dyson is one of the finest young drummers in the jazz world. Born in 1990 in New Orleans, he has been making music since early childhood—first in church, then at music school, and later at the Berklee College of Music. From the start of his young career, it was clear that he would become one of the promising talents in jazz drumming. After graduating with honors, he has since worked with musicians such as Nicholas Payton, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Pat Metheny, Sullivan Fortner, and many more.
