ERIC REED picture
American jazz pianist and composer, born June 21, 1970 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

from discogs

A superior pianist who grew up in gospel, studied classical, and played jazz with Wynton Marsalis before becoming a session leader himself.

Known for his mastery of straight-ahead post-bop and gospel idioms, pianist Eric Reed initially came to the public's attention as a member of Wynton Marsalis' band in the late 1980s, before pursuing a rewarding solo career in his own right. On his own, Reed has issued a bevy of well-regarded albums like 1993's It's All Right to Swing, 1998's Pure Imagination, and 2009's Stand!, balancing his love of jazz, swing, and African-American church traditions. With Marsalis, he contributed to such lauded albums as 1992's Citi Movement and 1997's Pulitzer Prize-winning Blood on the Fields. Reed has continued to explore different sounds, moving from his own gospel- and hard bop-influenced albums like 2019's Everybody Gets the Blues
