  • Cyrus Chestnut

    Cyrus Chestnuts reputation as one of the definitive jazz pianists of his generation is firmly established. His new album, CYRUS PLAYS ELVIS, is both conceptually audacious and solidly in the pocket: a pure jazz exploration of songs made famous by the rock n roll immortal Elvis Presley. From the first note, its obvious that their shared influences of blues and gospel link these two very different artists at the bedrock level. Cyrus treatments of these classic tunes run the full range of jazz moods: playful, virtuosic, lyrical and always deeply soulful.
