Passionate artistry and astonishing virtuosity have propelled mallet player, Stefon Harris, to the forefront of the invigorated jazz scene. He has been heralded as one of the most important artists in jazz. In addition to his four Grammy® nominations, has been named “Best Mallet Player” by DownBeat Magazine and the Jazz Journalists Association. He tops all the polls that have been dominated reflexively for so long by now-retired Gary Burton.

Now with his pet project, Blackout, the band that will appear at “South Florida JAZZ at Bailey Hall,” we hear what has been percolating in the souls of Stefon and bandmates for more than 14 years. And it is impressive.
