drummer... Kendrick Scott “Oracle”

Terence Blanchard:  “Kendrick Scott has become the Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, and Tony Williams of his generation. His brilliant mind brings innovation to the music and at the same time creating a safe place for young talent to develop and grow.”

Herbie Hancock:  “Kendrick is not just a timekeeper; he is a musician with big ears and a great imagination.”

Nate Chinen, New York Times:  “Kendrick Scott is a jazz drummer conversant in an ultramodern sense of propulsion:  lightweight yet heavy-gauge, with room for tumbling accents and textures ... an acrobatic phenom.”

Jazz Times:  “Kendrick is a true artist of the highest order. He is exactly what we need: someone with the vision and courage to press forward and expand the world of music.”

Jazz Is:  “Scott’s leadership is fully realized in the evolution of his band Oracle, a collective of shining peers that articulates the drummer/composer's thought-provoking and welcoming music.” 

We welcome you to what is sure to be a mind expanding evening.
