Newly signed to Blue Note Records, Los Angeles-based pianist and composer Paul Cornish is making waves as one of the most innovative new voices in jazz. A Stanford Jazz Workshop alumnus, Cornish blends deep jazz roots with bold, forward-thinking vision, transforming tradition into an electrifying and inspiring musical journey.

A standout talent from Houston’s renowned High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, Cornish went on to earn degrees from USC and the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz at UCLA. Now a member of Joshua Redman’s band, he has toured the world and was featured on Redman’s NPR Tiny Desk Concert.

“Paul is one of the most innovative pianists to come along in quite a while,” says Blue Note President Don Was. “He is the next purveyor of that hallowed legacy.” Don’t miss this opportunity to witness Cornish’s extraordinary artistry and boundless creativity live on stage.
