JAE SINNETT

A native of Donora, PA, Jae Sinnett came to Virginia in the mid-70’s to serve in the United States Navy. After completing his military service, he began his music career by first attending Norfolk State University as a Music Education major. He evolved into a consummate drummer, composer and bandleader who has produced 21 albums as a leader and several as a sideman. Jae’s first recording as leader is Obsession, released in 1986. Featured were the former director of the Count Basie Orchestra, Frank Foster, on tenor saxophone, John Hicks on piano, Wallace Roney on trumpet, Steve Wilson on alto saxophone and Clarence Seay on bass. The swinging sextet album Blue Jae was released in 1992. House and Sinnett was released two years later and featured Cyrus Chestnut and Steve Wilson. Listen was released in 1997 with Jesse Davis on alto saxophone, John D’Earth on trumpet, Billy Pierce on tenor saxophone, and Allen Farnham and Cyrus Chestnut on piano. It went to the number one spot on the now defunct Gavin Jazz Radio Charts that July.
