Jason Miles, songwriter, keyboardist, producer and longtime collaborator of Miles Davis, presents "100 Miles for Miles Davis", a bold musical tribute that celebrates Miles Davis' 100th birthday. Jason Miles was the sound architect for Miles Davis' albums "Tutu", "Amandla" and "Siesta". Described by Miles Davis himself as a "synthesizer genius," he worked closely with Marcus Miller to create a new sonic direction that redefined modern jazz. In celebration of Miles Davis' birthday, Grammy-winning producer and keyboardist Jason Miles presents a powerful live project that reinvents the innovation, wit and bold creativity that defined a century of music.
Featuring a prestigious ensemble, including legendary trumpeter Randy Brecker, "100 Miles" blends jazz, fusion and modern timbres, inspired by moments between Jason and Miles. However, this is not a look into the past, but rather a tribute that produces something new, original and contemporary. Jason Miles shows: the great Miles Davis is still alive!
