Bassist Reggie Washington was a key participant in the Modern Jazz revolution of the 80's and 90's. He became known touring, recording and performing with Branford Marsalis, Roy Hargrove, Cassandra Wilson and more, before he began touring with his own band a decade ago.
The versatile Mr. Washington plays everything from jazz to funk to blues. "My music represents the cutting edge of jazz today. It's a healthy musical mix paying homage to our forefathers and exploring our craft by journeying down new roads to help pave the way for the future. For me, our music must evolve and I feel I'm among the select group of musicians, artists and stylists capable and dedicated to keeping jazz and all music alive and strong."
Reggie has a new album called Rainbow Shadow that is all that and more. And we’ve chosen one song from that album, “Morning,” as our newest SoulTracks First Listen. Reggie tells us, "This song can tell you how I feel every morning ..." Check it out below and tell us what you think!
