LIVE at Piedmont Piano Company
Isaiah Harwood Quartet
Bay Area native Isaiah Harwood brings his quartet of legendary LA musicians for a night of eclectic contemporary jazz. This set of original music focuses on intensity in all meanings of the word, in dynamic settings of triumph, tenderness, and all in between. The musicians all share a love of different genres such as hip-hop, soul, and singer-songwriter music, a sentiment that is clearly displayed in the set. Each piece contains a thoughtful meaning to a relatable human experience, and will be played with utmost care from the musicians.
