The early musical life of this Chicago-based piano prodigy was both a true journey through legendary, genre-spanning influences and self-destruction, consumed by addiction. Now reborn in sobriety, he’s taken the sounds that shaped him, ranging from Allen Toussaint’s vocals to Billy Preston’s gospel-soul and reinvented his own vintage framed blend of New Orleans rhythms and Chicago blues.
