For over a fifteen years, John Yao has been honing his talents as a trombonist, composer and arranger, and cementing his place on the New York City jazz scene. Yao’s lyrical soloing and expressive, round tone, combined with his relentless drive to push the boundaries of harmony and rhythm, have established him as a unique and forward-thinking jazz talent. All About Jazz calls Yao “an evolving artist who continues to grow at a rapid pace.” Masterfully leading and composing the music for both his large and small ensemble, Yao has released four albums as a leader. The first was John Yao Quintet’s debut album In the Now followed by Presence in 2017. In between, Yao released his first triumphant big band album Flip Flop with John Yao and His 17-piece Instrument in 2015. John Yao’s Triceratops recent album How We Do has been called “complex, modernistic and updated, full of counterpoint, it’s very accessible and so much fun” by Hot House Jazz.
