| 1977 - Jason Marsalis was born on this day. A drummer and a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. He is a member of the famous New Orleans Marsalis jazz musical family, and the the youngest son of Delores Ferdinand Marsalis and Ellis Marsalis, Jr. His brothers are Branford Marsalis, Wynton Marsalis, Ellis Marsalis III (1964), Delfeayo Marsalis, and Mboya Kinyatta (1971). He introduced percussionist Bill Summers to trumpeter Irvin Mayfield and together they co-founded the wildly successful Los Hombres Calientes. Then, at the height of that band's popularity, Jason left to join up with acclaimed pianist Marcus Roberts. Jason also continues to work as a sideman with Marcus Roberts, Ellis and Delfeayo Marsalis, John Ellis, Dr. Michael White, and Shannon Powell among others. |
