Ep. 36: It's a Beautiful Day w/ Keyon Harrold

  • Summary

  • On this episode, Braden spoke with musician, activist, and Ferguson native, Keyon Harrold. The McCluer High School alum left Ferguson for New York City to enroll in The New School.

    In New York, he landed his first major gig with Common, an audition he secured on the recommendation of his New School classmate Robert Glasper, and an experience which he says broadened his musical horizons beyond jazz to include funk, Afrobeat, R&B, and hip hop. Harrold was soon performing with stars like Common, Snoop Dogg, Jay Z, Beyonce, Mac Miller, Rihanna, Eminem, Maxwell, Anthony Hamilton, and Chaka Khan. He has spent the last 3 years as Creative Director of Jazz St. Louis. Harrold has been key in advancing community engagement and broadening our organization’s audience of ardent jazz appreciators.
