City Jazz Sessions welcomes American Saxophonist, Eric Person. He is prolific as a composer, and ubiquitous as a musical collaborator and artist. In this episode Eric details his early struggles with making it in New York at the age of 19 after moving from St. Louis. His upbringing in faith not only helped fuel his determination to follow his dream, but also influenced many of his album recordings. Thus far, Eric has released 10 records (Duoscope, Thoughts on God, The Grand Illusion, Rhythm Edge, Reflections, Live at Big Sur, Extra Pressure, More Tales to Tell, Prophecy, and Arrival). After a 6 year hiatus from releasing albums what Eric has on the horizon is some of his most selective work to date. Stay tuned for the release of "Blue Vision" from his label.
