T. S. and his legendary father, Thelonious Monk, recorded only once together. We will relive that event, as T. S. and his hard-swinging, sizzling sextet, take to the Historic Main Stage!
T. S. Monk - Drummer, composer, record company founder, band-leader, vocalist, and more!
Critics and audiences laud T. S. Monk as his father’s true musical heir, as band leader, and performer. He founded the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz which has not only brought great jazz talents to the fore but has proven to be the leading jazz institute world-wide.
Monk has received the New York Jazz Awards First Annual “Recording of the Year” award and Downbeat’s prestigious 63rd annual Album of the Year Reader’s Choice Award for the “Monk on Monk” tribute album to his father. “Monk On Monk” featured over twenty guest artists including Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Arturo Sandoval, and Nnenna Freelon.
