Al Williams
Jazz
Society:
Al
Williams drummer, entrepreneur and promoter of jazz, has a
well-earned reputation as a musical mover and shaker. Williams was born in
Pasadena, California, and his love affair with music began at the age of
eight when he began studying the clarinet. While in college, Williams
organized his first band, The Modern Jazz Majors, and their
enthusiastically-received performances at the Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach
launched him into the beginnings of a music career, a career that
ultimately branched off into two directions—an entrepreneurial
/promotional direction, and, of course, the development of his own musical
artistry as a drummer and band leader.
The Al Williams Jazz Society is a quintet composed of
some of the finest musicians in Southern California. High in energy,
melodically sensitive, they are bebop specialists who also perform a
variety of contemporary sounds—blues, ballads, Latin rhythms, smooth jazz,
etc. Whether it’s the Al Williams Jazz Society or the Al Williams Trio
performing, there is always a loyal following of fans who can count on the
unique artistry of his bands, bands that always included musicians whose
backgrounds are rich in experience and achievement.
