CARNEY'S OTHER ROOM / SATURDAY + SUNDAY

The Story

Trumpeter, composer, and producer Thomas Marriott is a force for jazz on the west coast. He’s paid dues beside jazz elders such as Maynard Ferguson, Roy McCurdy, Julian Priester, Ernie Watts, Roger Humphries, Mike Clark and Stix Hooper, and has been called on by contemporary standard-bearers like Joe Locke, Orrin Evans, Steve Wilson, and Charlie Hunter.

A chameleon of musical styles, Marriott’s horn has been in-demand with bands like the Grammy-Award winning Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Captain Black Big Band, Ivan Neville’s Dumpstafunk, hip-hop pioneer Deltron 3030 , and vocalists Kurt Elling. Screen Time, his latest release on Imani Records, Marriott’s 15th album as a leader, features music from screens large and small, from the cineplex to the iPhone.

The Sound

Some serious fun will be going down at this Imani Records Jam. Hosted by Thomas Marriottt, he’ll welcome Imani Records own Orrin Evans, Luques Curtis, and who knows all else in this Festival club jam.
