A jazz pianist and composer based in NYC, Sean Mason is emerging as one of the premier talents of his generation. Born and raised in Charlotte, NC, Sean Mason took to the piano at the late age of 13, teaching himself by ear to play the styles of music to which he was most attracted. His approach quickly evolved into a highly original language – a magical junction of the lowdown blues joint, the wooden pew of the Black Baptist church, and the glamour of a Broadway score: uptown elegance intermingled with downtown grit.
Hailed by NPR’s “Youngbloods” series as a musician on the rise, Sean has already performed and toured with jazz legends Branford Marsalis, Wynton Marsalis, and Catherine Russell and was featured on the soundtrack of the Netflix movie, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.
With the release of his debut album The Southern Suite in 2023, Mason presents an astonishingly mature statement revealing the stunning scope and potential of his performing and songwriting ability. Mason calls his music “the intersection of renaissance and street culture,” while his fast-growing fan base simply calls it catchy, danceable, forward-looking music.
