KEBBI WILLIAMS
Kebbi Williams may be considered amongst today’s leading improvisers on
Tenor saxophone. A true Eulipian, his musical world is an experience of
unlimited global (and even trans-global) exploration. He may be
encountered playing R&B, avant-garde Jazz, Hip-Hop, Reggae, Latin,
Afro-Beat, whatever… but regardless of the musical setting Kebbi’s sound
is uniquely and commandingly his own.
A graduate of Howard University, Kebbi’s command of the instrument has
afforded him the opportunity to work with such notables as Outkast,
Branford Marsalis, Donald Byrd, Roy Hargrove, Cee-lo, Jeff “Tain” Watts,
Bilal, Oteil Burbridge, Me’Shell Ndegeocello, Russell Gunn, Betty
Carter, Abbey Lincoln, Derek Trucks, and Julie Dexter.
There are those whose aptitude for constant growth and exhaustive
creative expression earn them the serious attention and admiration of
their peers. Kebbi Williams is certainly such a one.
