Mark Lewis and His Band in The Vineyard

MARK LEWIS
Saxophonist and flutist Mark Lewis has enlivened jazz scenes from Seattle and San Francisco to Rotterdam and Paris, and has created a vast and intensely stimulating body of music over the past four decades, including nearly 1,800 compositions. Seattle music writer Paul de Barros calls Lewis “A distinctive original” and legendary radio host Jim Wilke says he’s “a Northwest treasure.”
Recent awards include Cadence Magazine Top Ten Critics Poll for for his album Naked Animals, and #2 on alto sax (after Richie Cole) and #3 on flute (after Charles Lloyd and Hubert Laws) in the 39th Annual Jazz Station Awards for his album The New York Session, a collaboration with piano legend George Cables, bassist Essiet Essiet, and drummer Victor Lewis.
Rotterdam, the Netherlands was Mark’s home base for many years. He toured and played in the better clubs throughout Europe, and taught jazz theory and improvised music classes in several music conservatories. Mark lived and performed for several years in San Francisco and Victoria, BC as well.
Music writer Ted Gioia, known as a leading global guide to music past, present and future, says of Mark Lewis: “You listen to the guys with the primo recording contracts on the very top labels, and in my opinion, they’re not in Mark’s league.”
Performing with Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame pianist Bill Anschell.
