Since relocating from New York City in 2011, saxophonist, composer, and educator Jason Gillenwater has emerged as one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s most sought-after musicians. A versatile performer, he leads his own quartet and trio while maintaining a vibrant presence in the scene with ensembles like Jazz Mafia’s Realistic Orchestra, the Doug Miller Quartet, and the Grammy-winning Pacific Mambo Orchestra. His distinguished career includes a long-standing tenure as a featured soloist with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra (1999–2011) and as a United States Jazz Ambassador, touring under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of State and Jazz at Lincoln Center. “…he’s a gifted improviser with a tendency for gutbucket honks and squawks, reminiscent of a young and fiery Joe Henderson or possibly Tony Malaby (though Wayne Shorter comes out in a few of the guitar-tenor unison themes).” Clifford Allen, All About Jazz NY
