Los Angeles-based Jazz Pianist & Composer Max Haymer

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Los Angeles-based Jazz Pianist & Composer Max Haymer .. We caught up with him in early February 2021 about his latest 2021 CD – Whilwind – Live at Sam First .. It has taken 12 years for him to release this new project because he’s been so busy touring as a longtime member of Arturo Sandoval’s band as well as leading his own popular trio and acting as West Coast accompanist for singer Jane Monheit. He began studying classical piano when he was seven years old and was introduced to jazz piano at the age of 14. He studied with the renowned Los Angeles-based pianist Tamir Hendelman. I caught him a few years ago in Kansas City at the Folly with Arturo Sandoval .. One of my favorite live shows ever .. He talks about that and so much more ... Enjoy ..
