If Jason Crosby’s name isn’t immediately familiar, his keyboard/violin/guitar playing most likely is. The multi-instrumental virtuoso has toured and recorded with a who’s who of legendary artists, including Jackson Browne, Susan Tedeschi, Pete Seeger, Eric Clapton, among others. He’s graced the stages of the world’s biggest festivals and appeared on television everywhere from The Tonight Show and Austin City Limits to Jools Holland and the GRAMMY Awards, where he played keyboard in the tribute to Funk with Outkast, the original P-Funk, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Upon landing in California, he took up gigs with Phil Lesh and Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead, Jenny Lewis, John McLaughlin, and the Mother Hips, and he soon discovered an audience hungry for the original material he’d begun crafting during his hiatus from the road.
