About
Erik Jekabson (born March 23, 1973) is an American jazz trumpeter, flugelhorn player, and vibraphonist. A Bay Area-based musician, he is known for the jazz group The Electric Squeezebox Orchestra, which he leads. Called โa thoughtfully cerebral performer known for his sophisticated jazz chopsโ, trumpeter/composer Jekabson first emerged as a freelancer in the Bay Area in the late '90s. Based in San Francisco, Jekabson balances his time between performing and teaching, holding positions at the California Jazz Conservatory, Los Medanos College, and Diablo Valley College. While post-bop jazz is his forte, albums like 2012's Anti-Mass, 2017's Erik Jekabson Sextet, and 2018's The Falling Dream, with the Electric Squeezebox Orchestra, are anything but predictable, showcasing forays into Latin rhythms, funk, and chamber string music....
