About

Trumpeter, composer, and arranger Ryan Easter demonstrates a purpose-driven fascination with the dynamic history and practices of Black culture and music. He’s shared stages with Jennifer Holiday, Donald Harrison, Harish Raghavan, Tomoki Sanders, and many others, as well as performed internationally with the groups Nu Jazz and Wrens. Inspired as a teenager by seeing Roy Hargrove and Christian Scott perform in Jordans, Easter continues his exploration of style, substance, and the occasional omakase.

Music

Inspired by Woody Shaw, The Mars Volta, Ambrose Akinmusire, Future, Ravel, and everything in-between.
