About Ben Allison

Hometown

New York, NY, United States

Born

November 17, 1966

Genre

Jazz

In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Hearing my mother sing in choir when I was very young. The voices of 40 people filling a concert hall left a lasting impression.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Safe Passage” Safe Passage is the first tune I wrote for my album Moments Inside. I was sitting on the beach when I came up with the title. It means "everything's going to be alright."

Ben Allison has also released music as a member of Michael Blake Trio and Herbie Nichols Project.
