About the artist

Lonnie Liston Smith & the Cosmic Echoes

LONNIE LISTON SMITH may not be a household name, but in the world of jazz-funk fusion, he's a giant among men. With a career spanning over five decades, this keyboardist extraordinaire has consistently pushed the boundaries of what it means to be a jazz musician. Born in Richmond, Virginia in 1940, Lonnie Liston Smith began his musical journey at a young age, studying piano and eventually landing a spot in the legendary Miles Davis' band in the early 1970s. From there, he went on to form his own group, the Cosmic Echoes, and released a string of seminal albums that combined elements of jazz, funk, and soul in a way that was truly ahead of its time. Smith's music has a timeless quality to it, with lush, ethereal melodies and intricate rhythms that draw listeners in and never let go. His use of electronic keyboards and synthesizers was groundbreaking for the genre, and his collaborations with artists like Pharoah Sanders and Donald Byrd only further solidified his status as a true innovator in the world of music. But don't let his serious musical chops fool you - Lonnie Liston Smith is also known for his laid-back, easygoing vibe. With his signature floppy hat and infectious smile, he's a true original in an industry that often favors conformity over creativity. So, whether you're a diehard jazz fan or just someone looking to expand their musical horizons, Lonnie Liston Smith is definitely an artist worth checking out. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
