Info for Jamison

Dies ist die Debüt-Aufnahme von Jamison Ross, dem Gewinner des Thelonious Monk International Jazz Competition 2012. Die Aufnahme ist eine brillante Präsentation von Ross' Kunstfertigkeit, die nicht nur seine Fähigkeiten als Jazzmusiker zeigt, der die Trommeln befehligt, sondern auch als begabter Komponist, Arranger und spitzer, Sänger.

Ross singt auf zehn der zwölf Tracks der Scheibe. Angereichert mit Jazz, Blues, Gospel und echter Seele, filtert das Album Musik aus mehreren Epochen durch einen zeitgenössischen Ansatz, erfrischendes Material wie Muddy Waters' Klassiker von 1977, "Deep Down in Florida", eine Hommage an Grady Tate mit Gary McFarland, Louis Savarys Soul-Jazz-Klassiker, "Sack Full of Dreams" und Eddie Harris und Les McCann's 1. 971 H "Setze uns frei." Er ehrt auch die große Carmen Lundy mit einer ernsthaften Version ihrer Komposition von 1994 "These Things You Are to Me". Mit diesen Klassikern vermischt sind einige der eigenen Kompositionen von Ross, darunter "Emotions", eine lyrische Erzählung von Ross' persönlicher Perspektive auf die Reise des Lebens, unterstützt von einem tanzbaren Rhythmus und einer überzeugenden Melodie.

Jamison Ross
is a GRAMMY-Winning R&B/ Soul artist whose music emanates from the intersection of R&B, Gospel, and Blues supported by modern production + contemporary Soul. Jamison's previous projects from Affective Music releases have been influenced by some of history's greatest Soul singers, including Marvin Gaye, Rance Allen, and Al Green.

A native of Jacksonville, FL, Jamison honed his talent studying at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, before attending Florida State University and then on to the University of New Orleans, where he earned a Master of Music. Shortly after graduating, Jamison released his debut album, Jamison (2015), earning his first GRAMMY nomination.

In 2019, Jamison and business partner, David S. Hargrett founded Affective Music, a Soul music-focused record label and management company dedicated to defining the sound of Soul for this era. Later that year, the label released Mykal Kilgore’s debut single, Let Me Go, produced by Jamison, earning his second GRAMMY nomination.

Following numerous accomplishments in his career, Jamison achieved a significant milestone in 2023 by winning a GRAMMY with Snarky Puppy for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album, Empire Central.

While Ross continues this journey as an artist, songwriter and producer to make a major imprint in R&B this year, he has released his most anticipated single yet, Say You Love Me written by the late DJ Rogers. This single was released on February 14th, Valentine’s Day and has so far made it to the top 20 R&B charts as well as being #1 most added.
