Jazz
Tom Grant
Active Decades: '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
Born: Feb 22, 1946 in Portland, OR
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Crossover Jazz
Tom Grant, who has impressive technique and a likable style, has spent most of his recording career making music that purposely appeal to a wide crossover audience, combining together jazz with pop and R&B. His father was a tap dancer who owned a record store and his older brother Mike played piano. When he was four, Tom Grant began playing piano and drums. He graduated from the University of Oregon and then went to New York with Jim Pepper's Pow Wow band. He earned a masters degree in education and was teaching high school social studies in Portland when Woody Shaw heard him playing at a weekend after-hours gig. Shaw offered Grant a job with his group and the experience soon led to more extensive work with Joe Henderson, Dexter Gordon, Charles Lloyd and Tony Williams (1979-81). Grant cut his first solo record in 1976 for Timeless and in 1979 he formed his own band which was open to the pop music that the keyboardist loves. In 1983 Tom Grant started recording a lengthy series of poppish jazz-influenced dates (for Chase, Pausa, Gaia, Verve Forecast and Shanachie) that have variously been called "New Adult Contemporary," "Quiet Storm," "Contemporary Jazz" and "Smooth Jazz"; each have been best-sellers in the "lite jazz" market. In addition, Tom Grant has composed music for TV and radio.
