Artist Biography
An adept guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, Kurt Rosenwinkel is known for his fearless, boundary-pushing approach to jazz. Building upon the eclectic post-bop work of guitarists like Pat Metheny, John Scofield, and Bill Frisell, he gained early buzz in the 1990s leading his own groups and working with progressive artists like Paul Motian, Tim Hagans, and Gary Burton. He came to wider recognition after joining the Verve roster, releasing albums like 2001's The Next Step and 2005's Deep Song. Rosenwinkel has continued to evolve, embracing a stylistically varied mix of sounds, as on 2012's kinetic, fusion-influenced Star of Jupiter and 2017's Brazilian-inflected Caipi. He returned to jazz standards on the 2020 trio album Angels Around and even set aside his guitar for 2022's Kurt Rosenwinkel Plays Piano.
