"Keyon blends the reflections of Miles Davis with the attitude of Christian Scott to form something relevant and cool. And it is this sound, honed yet raw, that announces Keyon Harrold onto the scene, not as a sideman, but a serious player among equals." - Thomas Earl/allaboutjazz.com
Raised from the fires of (now infamous) Ferguson, Missouri, Keyon has
developed a reputation as one of the world's most sought-after,
emotionally electric young trumpeters on the scene. A graduate from the
famous Mannes Jazz Program at the New School University, Keyon is an
eclectic trumpeter/music producer/arranger/songwriter who has been
featured on nearly 100 albums ranging from jazz, R&B, pop, gospel,
blues and hip hop. Keyon has toured and recorded with or produced for
some of the world's best artists and ensembles like Jay-Z, Beyonce,
Common, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill to name a few. He also has had numerous
musical placements in film and TV including the Miles Davis Biopic
"Miles Ahead" directed by Don Cheadle where he is featured as the
trumpet sound of Don Cheadle playing Miles Davis.
