Unlimited Miles

Under the direction of pianist, composer, and arranger John Beasley, six talented jazz musicians present a century of music from one of the genre’s most influential and controversial icons. Miles Davis can be credited with almost every important development and innovation in jazz from the mid-'40s to the early 1990s, with Beasley backing him since the pianist was 20 years old.  

The ensemble continues with Sean Jones (trumpet), Marcus Strickland (saxophone), Kurt Rosenwinkel (guitar), Ben Williams (bass), and Terreon Gully (drums), representing some of jazz’s most sought-after artists. Beasley himself has performed with a long list of jazz and other music legends including James Brown, Queen Latifah, and Chucho Valdés, as well as extensive work in television and film, including blockbuster movies scored by 15 time Oscar nominee Thomas Newman. Beasley’s 20+ recordings have earned him 2 Grammy® Awards, 12 nominations, 2 Latin Grammy nominations, and an Emmy nod.
