Gary Fuston, Octave Motives

"When I listen to Gary’s music, I want to say that it’s dramatic; but, I can’t. There is nothing dramatic about it. In fact Gary’s music is as smooth as the creamiest of butters. With each stroke of his guitar, and the playing of each chord, he takes you on a hypnotic journey…a journey I call Gary’s world." ~ Cres O'Neal, Jazz Em Up

Ezra Weiss, The Shirley Horn Suite

MEMBER SPOTLITE: Onaje Allan Gumbs

Born in Harlem on September 3, 1949, Onaje Allan Gumbs began his road to musical excellence at the tender age of 7 years old. Citing Henri Mancini as one of his earliest musical influences, Onaje groomed himself into an internationally renowned pianist/composer/arranger
In 1971, Leroy Kirkland introduced the young Onaje to famed jazz guitarist, Kenny Burrell. After listening to Onaye's demo, Burrell immediately hired Gumb's to play with him at Baker's Keyboard Lounge in Detroit. The rest is history
For 2 years, Onaje played the role of pianist, composer, and arranger for the late great Woody Shaw - contributing to two songs from Shaw's Grammy nominated album, "Rosewood". Onaje has produced and arranged works for many well known artists including, Stanley Jordan, Will Downing and Angela Bofil. He also arranged and performed on two signature songs for the late, great Ms. Phyllis Hyman: "Betcha By Golly Wow" and "The Answer is You".

MEMBER SPOTLITE: Yukiko Matsuyama

International recording artist Yukiko Matsuyama bridges eras and cultures. Her compositions for koto and western instruments delve into a joyous and celebrative blend of world and pop music. She delivers the sounds of the ancient 7th century instrument with authority and grace while managing to infuse elements of jazz, pop, new age, and world music into her mesmerizing compositions.
Born in Osaka Japan Matsuyama was classically trained at the Ikuta School of Koto from age 9. She received her professional certification and teaching credential in 1986.
Her best selling CD, Crème Brulée, is a delicious feast which blends the Japanese flavors of the Koto with rhythms from around the world and features Greg Vail’s soulful saxophone.
She performed at the Latin Grammys in November 2011. For the event, Matsuyama performed with Shakira on Antes De Las Seis, her latest single from the album, Sale El Sol, for which Shakira won the Latin Grammy for Best Female Pop Album.
Beyond the Space, a collaboration with Hirotaka Ogawa will be released exclusively in Japan this October with concerts in Osaka and Tokyo.

Charles "Buddy the King" Bolden

Charles "Buddy" Bolden was born on September 6, 1877, in New Orleans. Labeled the first "King" of the cornet in New Orleans, Buddy Bolden is considered, by many, to be the very first bandleader or musician to introduce the improvisational style of music we now know as jazz. He is also credited with inventing the Big 4 - a key rhythmic innovation on the marching band beat, which gave embryonic jazz much more room for individual improvisation.
During his early year, Buddy worked as a barber, and had two loves: music and women. Bolden played music he heard "by ear" and adapted it to his horn. In doing so, he created an exciting and novel fusion of rag-time, black sacred music, marching-band music and rural blues
In 1907, at the age of 30 years old, Bolden was diagnosed with schizophrenia. That same year, he was committed the Louisiana State Insane Asylum at Jackson, where he spent the rest of his life.
Charles "Buddy" Bolden passed away on November 4, 1931. Unfortunately, there are no known recordings made by this master of jazz.
