“Few musicians today are as versatile as Marcus Miller: bassist, keyboardist, bass clarinetist, film composer, producer and more.” – NPR
At the top of his game for over 40 years, Marcus Miller is a two-time Grammy Award winner, winner of the 2013 Edison Award for Lifetime Achievement in Jazz, and winner of the 2010 Victoire du Jazz, and he was appointed a UNESCO Artist For Peace in 2013.
His characteristic bass sound has left an indelible mark on a limitless catalog of musical hits, from Bill Wither’s “Just the Two of Us” to Luther Vandross’ “Never Too Much,” as well as songs from Chaka Khan, David Sanborn, Herbie Hancock, Eric Clapton, Aretha Franklin, George Benson, Elton John, and Bryan Ferry, to name a few. With his distinctive style—a unique combination of funk, groove, soul, and pure technical skills—Miller has been referred to as one of the most significant bass players in jazz, R&B, fusion, and soul. Bass Player Magazine includes him on its list of the ten most influential jazz players of this generation.
His latest studio album, Laid Black, features special guest performances by Trombone Shorty, Kirk Whalum, Patches Stewart, Take 6, Jonathan Butler, and guest vocalist Selah Sue. As a prolific artist and bandleader, Miller tours extensively worldwide with a band of gifted young musicians—perhaps reminding audiences of a certain Miles Davis who did the same for Miller and other young musicians like Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter.
In 2022, Marcus composed the score for the documentary film Sidney for Apple TV+, produced by Oprah Winfrey, which told the story of legendary actor, filmmaker, and iconic civil rights activist Sidney Poitier.
