DEVIN DANIELS - Saxophone Alto saxophonist Devin Daniels stands out as one of the most unique and versatile voices to emerge from LA’s rapidly evolving creative music landscape. The Inglewood (CA) native has the unique ability to fit into any musical situation without sacrificing the integrity of his individual voice. That, combined with his warm and thoughtful personality, is why Daniels has been invited to perform with bands led by Gerald Clayton , Miguel Atwood-Ferguson , John Beasley , Sam Barsh and Jamael Dean . In 2023, the great Herbie Hancock invited Devin to join him alongside jazz legends Ron Carter , Jack DeJohnette , Terence Blanchard , Chris Potter and LA-royalty, Kamasi Washington in a performance at the Hollywood Bowl honoring the late iconic saxophonist, Wayne Shorter. Following this performance, Hancock invited Daniels to join his band again, this time for a month-long US tour in the Spring of 2024. Daniels’ love for the saxophone started in the “ Just Lovin’ Music Studios ” program, led by pianist Michelle Love— a free program designed to give students of color a chance to rent out and learn a new instrument. It was attending programs like this one that helped Daniels earn full-scholarships to study at some of the world’s most prestigious music schools: Berklee College of Music , FocusYear Basel and the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz Studies at UCLA. Following his time at the Hancock Institute, Daniels was selected to be the Herb Alpert Foundation’s 2024 “Make Jazz Fellow” , where he was commissioned to compose a range of new music over the course of three months, much of which became the foundation for his newest album, LesGo!. Recorded live at LA’s westside jazz club, Sam First, LesGo! captures the raw, unadulterated energy that’s been brewing in LA’s jazz scene over the past 15+ years. Joining him on this recording are four of Daniels’ exceptionally talented LA-based cohorts– trumpeter Julien Knowles , pianist Chris Fishman , bassist Jermaine Paul and drummer Benjamin Ring . Daniels’ 2022 release Trio Exposition on The Village Records features Daniels in a trio format alongside drummer Christian Euman and bassist Logan Kane , giving the three musicians space to fully explore and push each other. Daniels also produces electronic music in his downtime and has released an album on the Los Angeles-based record label, Leaving Records under the name Kara-Do , joining a catalog with the likes of Knxwledge , Keifer , and Carlos Nino . His electronic music has been described as “… fusion at its finest, beat music and jazz moving forward in lockstep.” This event is All Ages Seating is first-come, first-served; the last 10 spots in the room are standing room.
