James Carter Organ Trio (USA)Born in Detroit in 1969, James Carter has played saxophone from age 11. He came to the limelight with his mentor, trumpet legend Lester Bowie, and belonged also to the Tough Young Tenors group.

With over 20 albums as a leader in his catalogue, he is the cousin of jazz violinst Regina Carter....

James Carter Organ Trio (USA)Detroitissa vuonna 1969 syntynyt James Carter tarttui saksofoniin 11-vuotiaana ja tuli parrasvaloihin edesmenneen trumpetistisuuruuden Lester Bowienkanssa. Hän kuului myös Tough Young Tenors -ryhmään. Nykyään mies hallitsee melkoisen puhallinparven kaikista foneista basso- ja kontrabassoklarinetteihin ja tuntee jazzin koko historian perin pohjin. Hänelle onkin tyypillistä tarttua jonkin tiettyyn jazz-tyyliin ja pumpata siihen uutta verta, kuten nyt urkutrioon. Monista työkumppaneista mainittakoon Julius Hemphill, Frank Lowe, Kathleen Battle ja Wynton Marsalis. Yli 20 omaa levyä tehnyt Carter on jazz-viulisti Regina Carterin serkku.
