DESCRIPTION
Etienne Charles brings everything he has to the stage with thrilling compositions and palpable charisma. Building on his Trinidadian heritage, Charles is rewriting jazz by blending myriad rhythms from the French, Spanish, English, and Dutch-speaking Caribbean and defying easy musical categorization.
NPRโs โAll Things Consideredโ calls Etienne โa great young trumpeterโ whose โrecords filter calypso, reggae and other Afro-Caribbean music into a modern jazz conception.โ
