Product description


On Origin, celebrated pianist, bandleader, and three-time Grammy nominee Joey Alexander has written the next chapter of his career: composer. His longstanding trio featuring Larry Grenadier and Kendrick Scott is the backbone of his creative freedom, with Chris Potter (a previous collaborator) and Gilad Hekselman joining the fray to bring to life the spectacular vision of Alexander's first full length release of all original music and debut with Mack Avenue Records. Over the course of his astonishing career Alexander has performed with Wayne Shorter and Esperanza Spalding at the Obama White House, for President Bill Clinton at the Arthur Ashe Learning Center Gala, at the Grand Ole Opry, the Apollo Theater, Carnegie Hall and at major jazz festivals and night clubs around the world.

Joey Alexander, now 18, is stepping out as a composer and bandleader as well as a virtuoso pianist. "These past years have been especially trying for everyone, including those of us who didn't know when we would ever perform for live audiences again," Alexander said. "Origin represents a turning point for me — the time when I decided to turn frustration into an opportunity to truly express myself and to rise above the circumstances."
