Willie Jones III is one of the world’s most celebrated drummers in modern jazz. As a band leader, Willie Jones III has sold out a series of sets at Dizzy's Club in New York City, Club 1905 in Portland, the Kirk Douglas Theatre in Los Angeles, Club Bebop in Buenos Aires, and Bimhuis in Amsterdam. The Los Angeles-born musician performed in the Roy Hargrove Quintet from 1998-2006. He was also one of two drummers in Hargrove’s powerhouse group RH Factor. Jones has been featured on performances and tours with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis and as a drummer of choice for legendary artists including Sonny Rollins, Ernestine Anderson, Bobby Hutcherson, Cedar Walton, Frank Wess, Bill Charlap, Michael Brecker, Herbie Hancock, and Hank Jones. He released his eighth album as a leader in 2025, a collection of a new composition by Jones as well as his jazz arrangements of timeless songs from the R&B and popular music canon including Earth Wind & Fire’s “Can’t Hide Love,” Debarge’s “All This Love,” and Fats Domino’s “I’m Walkin’.”
Eric Scott Reed has been a vital force in jazz for over 25 years, excelling as a leader, composer, producer, educator, and sideman with legends like Freddie Hubbard and Wynton Marsalis. His recordings, such as The Adventurous Monk and Groovewise, showcase his innovative approach to jazz standards and original compositions.
