He played in local clubs from his early teenage years\, and studied at the Jazzmobile workshops with Frank Wess\, Charles Davis\, and Frank Foster. He also met Branford Marsalis\, who convinced him to study with Alvin Batiste at Southern University in Louisiana. \n  \n\n\n\nSoon after this\, Anderson began touring with the Wynton Marsalis Septet\, and collaborated with Marsalis through the middle of the 1990s. He continued to play with Marsalis’s Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra beyond this.

SUMMARY:Lawrence Matthews
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Lawrence Matthews in The Green Room. \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFriday\, January 26\, 2024\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $10 \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nOn Friday\, January 26\, at 7:30 pm\, the multi-hyphenated artist Lawrence Matthews will perform for the first time since retiring his former stage name Don Lifted at the Overton Park Shell in 2022. Independent and sitting on an album and a half of new material\, this performance features all new compositions only heard by a select few at private listening events over the last year. \nKnown for his performances’ visual spectacle\, Matthews dials it back offering a undistracted and direct connection between himself and the audience while presenting a full-bodied reflection of the south and its unrelenting hold both spiritually and physically. The new material exists as a musical portal and a radical contemporary extension of the sampled blues\, soul\, and jazz artists for which Matthews finds himself kin. \n“When Robert Johnson went away and came back as everything history remembered him as\, people claimed he had sold his soul to the devil. They couldn’t fathom his jump in ability … I’ve had my own time away and now I’m back.” — Lawrence Matthews
