  • Urban Jazz Harmonicist Introducing One of the Most Captivating Talents in the Instrumental Music Scene - Urban Jazz Harmonicist Frederic Yonnet!
    URBAN JAZZ HARMONICIST INTRODUCING ONE OF THE MOST CAPTIVATING TALENTS IN THE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC SCENE - URBAN JAZZ HARMONICIST FREDERIC YONNET! Using an instrument many have owned but few have mastered, Yonnet expands the harmonica beyond its traditional context: blues, country and folk music, and incorporates it into a fresh, modern and soulful sound that hovers on the outer edges of jazz. As one of a handful of musicians to successfully demonstrate the harmonica's versatility as a lead instrument, Yonnet’s signature sound embraces a reverence for jazz, gospel and blues that appeals to a generation bred on pop rock and hip-hop. His unique ability to play chromatically on a ten-hole diatonic harmonica gives Yonnet unlimited access to notes and sounds that don’t naturally exist on the instrument. As a result, he masterfully bridges the gap between the diatonic and chromatic harps -- impressing fans of both. Yonnet has toured with music icons Stevie Wonder and Prince and can be seen online in dueling harmonica duets with Wonder and Erykah Badu. He has performed with the National Symphony Orchestra, David Foster, Ed Sheeran, John Legend, John Mayer, Mint Condition, Kirk Whalum and other notable soul, pop and jazz artists. He’s described by Rolling Stone magazine as Prince's “killer harmonica player,” however Yonnet is hardly a sideman. Instead, his captivating stage presence and strong improvisational skills leads the band and emboldens the most skeptical audience members to follow.
