All music used with permission by Jamey Haddad.

Jamey Haddad holds a unique place in both jazz and world music. Working with Yo Yo Ma – Paul Simon and Sting, Jamey is one of America’s most prominent world music percussionists.

Grammy award winning pianist Sullivan Fortner has been stretching his deep rooted talents as a composer, band leader and uncompromising individualist. Whether playing solo or leading an orchestra, Fortner engages harmony and rhythmic ideas through curiosity and clarity. Within phrases, he finds universes, and listeners often hear how he’s moved by each note he explores.

Together Sullivan and Jamey, along with Kip Reed on bass, and Bobby Selvaggio on alto saxophone played to a sold out audience in this May 9th, 2023 performance – Live at the Bop Stop.
