- 07:30 PM Tom Grant Duo
TOM GRANT, master instrumentalist, talented singer and natural entertainer nimbly walks the line between jazz tradition and modern pop. This soft-spoken Oregon native's inspired songwriting produces propulsive R&B grooves, infectious melodic hooks, and stylish ballads with equal ease. He plays jazz piano with the harmonic sophistication and deep sense of swing that only comes from more than three decades on the bandstand. At the same time, his recordings have consistently landed at the top of the New Adult Contemporary (NAC)/Smooth Jazz charts, a genre of music Tom helped pioneer in the mid-80s.
The first non-classical Steinway artist in the Pacific Northwest.
In 2001, Tom formed his own record label, Nu-Wrinkle Records. Tom felt it was time to explore the world of produced music. He currently has five releases on this label. The most recent "Side by Side", with Valerie Day was released in May 2005.
