They’re known for their energizing arrangements of American jazz classics and fresh original music. Hailing from Washington, DC, they were selected internationally as teenagers for Betty Carter’s Jazz Ahead, the Next Generation Jazz Orchestra, and NFAA Young Arts. Peter and Will attended Juilliard in New York City, where they currently reside. Peter and Will have headlined at The Blue Note, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Seattle’s Triple Door, and Miami-Dade’s Cultural Arts Center. Their ensemble has performed in over 30 U.S. States, toured Japan, and featured four times in NYC’s famed “Highlights in Jazz” series, alongside legends Lou Donaldson, Paquito D’Rivera, and Wycliffe Gordon. Peter and Will’s 2012 release for Smalls records, Correspondence, features Kenny Barron and was listed in Vanity Fair magazine alongside Miles Davis in “Four New Releases to Make You Love Jazz.” Their recent release, Reed Reflections, was called by the Washington Post, “imaginatively unfolding in ways that consistently bring a fresh perspective to classic jazz tunes.” “These guys flood the room with joy!” -- Seattle Times “REMARKABLE!” -- Wall Street Journal
