Dave Potter Sextet Plays The Music of Miles Davis

Drummer Dave Potter leads a stellar sextet playing a musical tribute to Jazz legend Miles Davis and his classic bands from the 40's, 50's, and 60's, featuring Miguel Alvarado on tenor saxophone, Desmond Ng on trombone, Dr. Andrew Sioberg on trumpet, Daniel Kuk on piano and Rob "El Ton" Linton on bass.

Following his graduation from Florida State, Potter was chosen from a national pool of applicants to be a member of the Louis Armstrong Quintet at the University of New Orleans. Unfortunately, the tragedy of hurricane Katrina temporarily ended his hopes for a career in Louisiana. Soon after, Potter was awarded a full scholarship to The Julliard School in New York City. However, after several days of intense meditation he declined the offer and returned to Florida State University, where he received his master’s degree after further collaboration with his mentor Marcus Roberts. The drummer is now based in Atlanta where he maintains a busy teaching and performing schedule while also touring with The Jason Marsalis Vibes Quartet, Greg Tardy, Eric Reed, and Marcus Roberts, as well as his main project as a leader, Retro Groove.
