New Album
Rooted in the rich traditions of Black American music, The First Day of Taurus showcases baritone saxophonist Jason Marshall's commanding, soulful sound and hard-swinging approach to jazz.
Recorded in Brooklyn with Jonathan Thomas, Chris Beck, and Barry Stephenson, the seven-track album explores compositions that have shaped Marshall's musical development, from beloved jazz standards to works by Quincy Jones, Tubby Hayes, and Tony Terry.
A celebration of musical lineage, shared experience, and the enduring relationships that sustain the music.
About
Musician | Educator | Thought Leader
I have been entrusted with an aptitude for music so that I can be about the work of wellness in my community and in my environment. That work includes restoring our subconscious and super-subconscious memory, reacquainting with our original customs and languages; restoring and developing our intrinsic culture. I gather the pieces of our fractured history together in the vibrations of our ancestors that we might fashion an accurate map of the way forward. Together.
