Matt Cappy, a trumpeter, composer and arranger has been recording, touring and performing with the biggest names in music for 20+ years.The Story
East Philadelphia-based funk-fusion trumpeter Matt Cappy has played sideman to stars as Tony Bennett, Aretha Franklin, Jill Scott, Mos Def, Erykah Badu and Jay-Z. He has also recorded on albums by Michael Jackson, Earth, Wind & Fire, Elvis Costello, Wyclef Jean, Gerald Veasley and The Roots. But its in his capacity as bandleader of his potent quintet that the Berlin, New Jersey native really gets to blow his own horn.
The Sound
Cappy and his funky crew throw down in the spirit of the Brecker Brothers on “East Philly” and the nasty “Cappy Bounce,” the latter featuring the trumpeter dialing up a healthy dose of wah-wah on his extended solo. Expect other tunes from his 2017 album Church and State , including the infectious “Rose Lane” (named for the street where he grew up in Berlin) and the hip-hop flavored title track (featuring rapper Chill Moody). Stay for the stellar Stevie Wonder medley. He may even encore with the Puccini opera classic “Nessun Dorma” or the spiritual “Amazing Grace.” This talented cat covers a whole lot of territory in the course of a single set.
