Grammy Award–winning drummer, composer and educator Dion Parson has been leading 21st Century Band for more than two decades.

Widely respected on the New York jazz scene for over 30 years and recognized worldwide, Parson has recorded on over 80 albums for major labels including Columbia, Sony, Gramavision, and Blue Note. Whether new or integral to your musical catalog, come hear the fresh and dynamic interpretations of Parson’s ensemble, woven into a euphonious tapestry.
