GRAMMY-nominated Jazz Violinist Curtis Stewart

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with GRAMMY-nominated Jazz Violinist Curtis Stewart .. We caught up with him on July 1 as the world of COVID slows down to talk about his life in music and his brand new 2021 CD Bright Shiny Things .. It is a post-classical coming of agency album inspired by #BLM featuring songs of resistance and resilience for violin, voice, and electronics .. This cat has enjoyed an eclectic career bouncing between various realms of music: from MTV specials with Wyclef Jean and sold out shows at Madison Square Garden with Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, and Seal, to stints at the Kennedy center with the Jimmy Heath Big Band and performance installations at the Whitney Museum .. Dig his story ..
