  • Will Sellenraad - Balance BIO
    Will Sellenraad - Balance BIO www.WillSellenraad.com Will Sellenraad has earned a fast growing reputation of being at the forefront of creative musicians working in New York City. Known for his brilliant improvisations and his compelling, emotive compositions, this New York City native melds the various styles, phrasings and concepts of the jazz idiom with the raw elements of soul, rock and funk, to create a singular sound that is nothing short of inspiring. “ . you will definitely be hearing more from Will Sellenraad” – Kenny Barron The son of prominent New York painters, he was destined towards music at an early age. Raised and immersed in the City's downtown art and music culture, Sellenraad was able to focus all his energies and talent toward the guitar. After being awarded numerous scholarships, Sellenraad graduated from the New School University Jazz Program in 1995, where he studied under many jazz giants. In the mid-1990's, the guitarist landed the house gig at Visiones, one of New York's finest jazz clubs. Over several years of performances at the club Sellenraad developed a great musical kinship with fellow native New Yorker, drummer Eric McPherson and first-call bassist Kiyoshi Kitagawa. This great musical rapport led to the 1998 recording of his critically acclaimed debut album, Streams, which features a special appearance by the astounding James Hurt. “This disc was my introduction to Will Sellenraad; it would be nice to hear a lot more from him." – JazzTimes (on Star Hustler) In 2002, Mr. Sellenraad recorded Star Hustler with his band Root Down, featuring Brian Charette on organ and Darren Beckett on drums.

Music elements from various cultures blended together on the streets of New Orleans to create the TI Black Employee Initiative present: foundation of jazz. Hundreds of innovators sculpted and developed the music over the years. It was a different time and people had societal obstacles to overcome, but they created musical art that is unmatched in beauty and creativity. We are proud to pay tribute to a few of the great black musicians, composers, and arrangers that contributed so much to the art of jazz.
