In the course of a twenty-plus-year career, Mr. Coltrane has worked as a sideman to many, and recorded noteworthy albums for himself and others.
Ravi has released six albums as a leader: Moving Pictures, From The Round Box, Mad 6, In Flux, Blending Times, and Spirit Fiction. He has also collaborated on various albums, including: Seraphic Light with Joe Lovano and David Liebman, In Movement with Jack DeJohnette and Matthew Garrison, and The Blue Note’s 70th Anniversary recording, Mosaic: A Celebration of Blue Note.

Born in Long Island, the second son of John Coltrane and Alice Coltrane, Ravi was named after Indian sitar legend Ravi Shankar. He was raised in Los Angeles, where his family moved after his father’s death in 1967. His mother was a significant influence on Ravi and it was he who encouraged Alice to return to performance and the recording studio after a long absence. Subsequently, Ravi produced and played on her powerful Translinear Light, which was released in 2004.
Ravi lives in Brooklyn, NY, and maintains a fast-paced touring, recording, composing, and performance schedule. He leads the effort to restore the John Coltrane Home in Dix Hills, Long Island (www.thecoltranehome.org) and presides over important reissues of his parent’s recordings.
