About Larry Goldings: Nominated for Best Jazz Album Grammy in 2007, musician Larry Goldings has recorded, toured, and performed with artists such as James Taylor, John Mayer, Norah Jones, Steve Gadd, Tracy Chapman, Michael Brecker, Melody Gardot, Charlie Haden, Herbie Hancock, Al Jarreau, Jack DeJohnnette, John Scofield, and Maceo Parker, to name a few. His distinctive keyboard sound can be heard on hundreds of albums in genres including jazz, funk, pop, R&B, alternative, and Brazilian music.
