Wynton Marsalis 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝟓𝐱-𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐘® 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐍𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐉𝐚𝐳𝐳 𝐏𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭 & 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐍 𝐒𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐒 𝐚 “𝐣𝐚𝐳𝐳 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞,” 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝. Christian is an emerging jazz force. His abundant piano technique perfectly matches his conception, accomplishing a much deeper musical goal: a fresh look at the entire language of jazz. Whether it’s stride, swing, bebop, progressive, fusion, Brazilian or Afro-Cuban, Sands develops the past while providing unusual and stimulating vehicles for the present…and for the future.

It was that same spirit that caught the attention of 8x-GRAMMY® Award-Winning Jazz Bassist, Christian McBride, who asked Sands — then 20 years old — to sit in at the Village Vanguard with his big band, Inside Straight. That appearance led to Sands becoming a member of bassist Christian McBride’s Trio, with whom he has toured throughout the world. Their 2013 CD release, ‘Out Here’, received a GRAMMY® Award Nomination for “Best Jazz Instrumental Album”.
