John Medeski

Solo

describes his style as “jazz, in the sense that stuff is left open for the moment,” yet his skilled playing also reveals his classical training, passion for pop music, and deep admiration for jazz legends such as Monk. What Medeski likes about his solo performances? “It’s just a piano in a room,” he says. “Musically, it can go anywhere.”

The classically trained Medeski grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and studied at the New England Conservatory. Equally comfortable behind a Steinway grand, a Hammond organ or vintage keyboards, he is a sought-after improviser and bandleader. He has worked with a wide range of artists including John Zorn, The Word (Robert Randolph, North Mississippi Allstars), Phil Lesh, Don Was, John Scofield, Coheed & Cambria, Susana Baca, Sean Lennon, Marc Ribot, Irma Thomas, Blind Boys of Alabama, Dirty Dozen Brass Band and many more. 

His first solo piano album, A Different Time, was released on Sony's Okeh Records in 2013. He is currently working on a new album with his band MadSkillet (Terrence Higgins, Kirk Joseph, Will Bernard), a project called HUDSON in collaboration with Jack DeJohnette, John Scofield and Larry Grenadier and a documentary about Medeski Martin & Wood.
