Hailing from New Orleans, Sullivan Fortner has been regarded as one of the finest jazz pianists of his generation for over a decade. The Grammy-winning artist, composer and bandleader captivates audiences with his tonal depth, stylistic versatility, and exceptional improvisational talent. He also spent many years performing alongside American jazz stars such as Roy Hargrove, Christian Scott and Stefon Harris.
He gained international recognition for his solo album "Solo Game" (2024) and for his work as co-producer and pianist on "The Window", the album he recorded with the young jazz diva Cécile McLorin Salvant. Together, they performed an unforgettable duo set on the Moods stage.
Fortner is now coming to visit with his trio and a new album in hand. "Leave that in there" is being released on Artwork Records this year and follows the highly acclaimed and 2026 GRAMMY awarded previous album, "Southern Nights". In the trio, Fortner prioritises unadulterated, honest musical expression over perfection, embracing spontaneous, unpractised moments, mistakes, and raw recordings to capture genuine emotion.
