ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Julian Berkowitz is a drummer, percussionist, and educator residing in Washington, DC. Rooted in the deep tradition of American jazz, fusion, funk, and the rhythms of Brazil, Julian has quickly become one of the DC area’s most in-demand drummers. The son of a Jewish-American father and Brazilian mother, Julian was born and raised in the small town of Easton, Connecticut. His first experience with the drums began at the age of 5, when he discovered the pots and pans in the kitchen doubled as a makeshift drum kit.
Upon moving to Washington, DC in 2013 to attend The George Washington University, Julian was fortunate to study jazz with virtuoso Brazilian drummer Alejandro Lucini. Julian graduated from GWU in 2017 and began to explore the D.C. jazz scene.
Julian has performed with musicians such as Chuck Redd, Mike Pope, Herman Burney, J.S. Williams, Tedd Baker, Tim Murphy, Thad Wilson, Shawn Purcell, and Todd Simon. Additionally, Julian played with international artist Michel Nirenberg on his 2017 and 2018 U.S. tours and accompanied smooth Latin jazz artist Debora Galan on her 2019 East Coast tour.
Julian actively plays at a number of venues in the DC metro area, including Blues Alley, Rams Head on Stage, Alice’s Jazz and Cultural Society, Twins Jazz, An Die Musik Live, Avalon Theatre, Jojo, and 49 West.
As a bandleader, Julian frequently performs with the Julian Berkowitz Trio at many music venues across the DMV area. Currently, Julian has a weekly Thursday night jam session he leads with his trio at the Green Island Cafe on 18th Street. He also has a weekly Friday night residency with his trio at Right Proper Brewing’s Brookland Production House.
