Nicholas Payton is a trumpeter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, and cultural theorist from New Orleans, Louisiana. One of the most significant musical voices of his generation, Payton has released more than twenty albums as a leader and has performed and recorded with an extraordinary range of artists across genres and traditions. He is a Grammy Award winner and the originator of the #BAM (Black American Music) philosophy, through which he has spent over a decade challenging the mislabeling and misrepresentation of Black creative music. His work moves across swing, funk, blues, R&B, and electronic music with the conviction that these are all expressions of a single, continuous cultural language. Payton is a lifelong New Orleanian whose practice is inseparable from the city’s musical inheritance and its ongoing role as the source of American sound.
This performance is made possible by the Houston Jazz Collective, 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to presenting music in the state of Texas, and Fred Haas Toyota.
