Hvilken slags jazz spiller de?

Han kan gå fra et komplekse avantgardistisk forløb til det mest sjælfulde blues-groove på et splitsekund. Han er en musiker, der med en næsten overnaturlig teknik bygger bro mellem jazzens rødder og dens mest progressive fremtid.

Han vandt en Grammy for sit samarbejde med sangerinden Cécile McLorin Salvant på albummet The Window og har desuden samarbejdet med kunstnere som Paul Simon, Roy Hargrove, Wynton Marsalis og John Scofield. Han er også blevet undervist giganter som Herbie Hancock og Fred Hersch.
Hvad siger anmelderne?
"Sullivan Fortner er ikke bare en pianist; han er en naturkraft. Han har en evne til at få klaveret til at lyde som et helt orkester og en fantasi, der synes uudtømmelig."
— The New York Times
