Joel Ross Interview

Posted on May 27, 2021

Joel Ross

Join DJ Nickel Hardaway on Friday, May 28th @ 12:30 PM when he speaks with Chicago born, Brooklyn based vibraphonist-composer, Joel Ross.

In 2019, Ross issued his Blue Note debut KingMaker to peer acknowledgment and wide critical acclaim. The album received nods from The New York Times’ Best Jazz of 2019, NPR Music’s Jazz Critics Poll and Rolling Stone’s 2019 Jazz Listener’s Guide. Now, expanding the breadth of his expression with his second release Who Are You?, the young artist has actualized his sound.

Inspired by mentor Stefon Harris’ empathetic, whole-self approach to articulation, Ross has adopted an entire ethos dependent on truthful, ongoing communication. Honesty persists throughout his sets. And with each release, he reaffirms a commitment to authentic discourse, particularly among the members of his band Good Vibes: Jeremy Corren, Immanuel Wilkins, Kanoa Mendenhall and Jeremy Dutton.
