He’s reached millions with his music, touring the world for the last 20 years. He’s worked with the best in the business, both live and in the studio, as a composer, an arranger and a show stopping sideman, and has appeared on hundreds of recordings. Now, with the release of his sophomore album “Waiting For You” on Innervision Records, JJ puts forward a stunning selection of his original compositions, with the help of a stellar array of musicians, producers and special guests. His latest singles “Back Talk” and “Gravy Train” have topped the radio charts, climbing up Billboard and Groove Jazz Music. JJ continues to perform with reggae legend Maxi Priest, while simultaneously touring with his own band. This is JJ Sansaverino ’s ONLY Connecticut appearance with his band this year!
