Info zu Jamison

Dies ist die Debüt-Aufnahme von Jamison Ross, dem Gewinner des Thelonious Monk International Jazz Competition 2012. Die Aufnahme ist eine brillante Präsentation von Ross' Kunstfertigkeit, die nicht nur seine Fähigkeiten als Jazzmusiker zeigt, der die Trommeln befehligt, sondern auch als begabter Komponist, Arranger und spitzer, Sänger.

Ross singt auf zehn der zwölf Tracks der Scheibe. Angereichert mit Jazz, Blues, Gospel und echter Seele, filtert das Album Musik aus mehreren Epochen durch einen zeitgenössischen Ansatz, erfrischendes Material wie Muddy Waters' Klassiker von 1977, "Deep Down in Florida", eine Hommage an Grady Tate mit Gary McFarland, Louis Savarys Soul-Jazz-Klassiker, "Sack Full of Dreams" und Eddie Harris und Les McCann's 1. 971 H "Setze uns frei." Er ehrt auch die große Carmen Lundy mit einer ernsthaften Version ihrer Komposition von 1994 "These Things You Are to Me". Mit diesen Klassikern vermischt sind einige der eigenen Kompositionen von Ross, darunter "Emotions", eine lyrische Erzählung von Ross' persönlicher Perspektive auf die Reise des Lebens, unterstützt von einem tanzbaren Rhythmus und einer überzeugenden Melodie.

Jamison Ross
is a vocalist and drummer that delivers messages of humanity through the medium of jazz. His second album, All For One on Concord Jazz is slated to release January 26, 2018.

A native of Jacksonville, FL, Jamison’s passion for music was realized while growing up in his grandfather’s church, where he learned how to present music with honest intent. Jamison began his study of jazz as a high school student at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts. Jamison gained worldwide acclaim as a featured musician in the Tribeca Film Festival winning documentary CHOPS; a film that followed the school’s jazz ensemble as they prepare and perform in the renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Essentially Ellington Festival competition.

Ross continued his study of the genre at Florida State University (B.A., Jazz Studies), where he met his current band members and at University of New Orleans (M.M., Jazz), in the city where he currently resides. In 2012, Ross’ career began to take shape after winning the Thelonious Monk Jr. International Jazz Competition for his drumming. This achievement afforded him a recording contract with Concord Jazz. Jamison recounts, “at the time, people knew me as a drummer; they didn’t know I could sing. I wanted to merge my gifts.”

His 2015 debut release, Jamison, introduced the world to his concept of rhythm and melody and also garnered a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album. His sophomore release, All For One, takes listeners a level deeper into Jamison’s ethos. The album is a result of a personal revelation that we all have the capacity to love with empathy in a deeper way.”
