Marshall Keys

“Alto and soprano saxophonist Marshall Keys has a solid, soulful tone and a knack for lines that start out as simple lines and seemingly take on a life of their own, developing into elaborate, smartly constructed melodies. He’s a true virtuoso musician who has something personal and erudite to say on the instrument.”

A native of Washington DC, Marshall began began in the DC Youth Orchestra Program, then flirted with jazz studies at Howard University, all the while working with legendary jazz musicians like Jimmy Witherspoon, Jimmy Heath, Pepper Adams, Miriam Makeba, Jimmy Scott, Stevie Wonder, and the blues organistJimmy McGriff with which he recorded the album “Countdown”.

Federico Peña

Before leaving Buenos Aires for North America in 1984, Uruguay born Pianist Federico Pena honed his craft under the watchful eye of some of Argentina's top session players and producers like Gustavo Donez (Sweater), El Soca, Daniel Colombres, El Mono Fontana, Juan del Barrio and Jota Morelli. After studying intensely under world renowned Argentine concert pianist Antonio de Raco, in 1984, at 18-years old, Peña made the move to the States, attending the Berklee College of Music for one year before settling in Washington, D.C. He landed gigs with the city's best go-go bands and began to spread his wings from there.
