In this episode we speak with pianist, improvisor, composer, and music producer Michael Coleman. We discuss Michael’s early years in NYC and his early exposure to the Jazz scene there.  We discuss his time at Oberlin College where he studied history and jazz piano. After graduation, Michael headed out to Oakland, CA where he began his career as a composer and sideman, working with Bay Area greats such as Scott Amendola, Marcus Shelby, and countless other improvising musicians and songwriters,  before returning to NYC where he currently resides.   

While most of Michael’s Discography can be found on his primary bandcamp, many of the albums we discuss in this podcast are from  a variety of bandcamp sites:
