Info & Tickets at JazzCoterie.comJazz Coterie presents Los Angeles-based pianist Paul Cornish with Jermaine Paul on bass and Jonathan Pinson on drums.
Blue Note Records debut album tour — "You’re Exaggerating!" releases August 22 and features a 9-song set of Paul Cornish originals.
Paul was one of seven jazz prodigies worldwide selected to be awarded a fellowship to the esteemed Herbie Hancock Institute, and was a recent finalist in American Pianists Association’s Jazz Competition.
Cornish has performed extensively across the globe with such notable artists as Joshua Redman, Louis Cole, Mark Guiliana, HAIM, Snoh Aalegra, Terrace Martin, Kanye West, and many more.
Paul was born and raised in Houston. He began taking classical piano lessons at age 5 and discovered jazz performance in his middle-school jazz band.
In Houston fashion, the church also played a pivotal role in his evolution. By middle school he was a paid working musician, leading programs of genre-blurring contemporary gospel at a youth church. He graduated to adult congregations, and to a three-service, full-day grind that taught him invaluable lessons in commitment and purpose he’d use later as a touring musician. “I still play in church to this day,” Cornish says, “and it instills this idea that you’re in service to something that’s larger than yourself. You’re a vessel for a message.”
