Jazz at the Dwyer
Jason Marshall Organ Trio
June 10, 2011

Jason Marshall has developed a style that encompasses a wide range of African-American music. He amalgamates soul, R&B, and funk with straight-ahead jazz, and plays with an appealing soulful sound. Marshall was influenced by artists such as Leo Parker, Nick Brignola and Bruce Johnstone, whom, taken together, gave him an open perception of the baritone sax and a “take-no-prisoners” approach to playing jazz music.

Jason’s formative musical experiences include stints with the Thad Wilson Jazz Orchestra and Bluesman Roy Gaines. He is currently playing and touring with Roy Hargrove’s band RH Factor and the Roy Hargrove Big Band. Jason’s band “Overt Negritude” recently released its self-titled debut album. Jason has also conducted numerous demonstrations, clinics and workshops throughout the world.
