Kamasi Washington, a Los Angeles saxophonist and composer, has redefined jazz's appeal. Bridging tradition with genre-bending experiments, he captivates diverse audiences. From renowned concert halls to rock festivals and intimate venues, he shines. Hailed by the New York Times Magazine in 2016 as jazz's most talked-about since Wynton Marsalis, Washington's journey began in LA's Leimert Park. Co-founding the West Coast Get Down collective, he collaborated with luminaries like Thundercat and played alongside diverse artists. His breakthrough came with Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly," leading to his own expansive debut, "The Epic." Subsequent releases like "Heaven and Earth" and the film "As Told to G/D Thyself" continue his musical odyssey, melding jazz, funk, and cinematic influences. For Washington, jazz is not just music but a guiding light through life's ever-changing landscape.
