The rising popularity of this group is mainly attributed to Sean Jones, the lead trumpeter. Jones had already created a name for himself based on his prowess in the genre. This Ohio native has done it all, from playing the trumpet alongside famous and noteworthy musicians, to composing music. Sean was responsible for giving the musical background to Nancy Wilson's brainchild 'Turned to Blue' which went on to win the coveted Grammy Award in 2007. He earned the position of lead trumpeter of Wynton Marsalis' Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra; a position which he left to start his own group.

Sean Jones has already established himself as a bona fide musician through his many forays. He has managed to release five successful albums that have cemented his place amongst today's most successful musicians. From a very young age Sean Jones showed an aptitude for music and demonstrated a level of understanding that went well beyond his age. At school, he changed his preference for instruments from the drum to the trumpet which has now become synonymous with the famed musician. It was in fact on the advice of his grandmother who told Sean that his grandfather also used to play the trumpet that young Sean Jones also decided to give it a try.

The change seemed to work wonders for the rising prodigy who found an innate attraction towards jazz. After graduating from Rutgers, Jones went on to perform at well known events such as the Detroit International Jazz Festival, The Monterey Jazz Festival and the Montreal International Jazz Festival. Being a gifted jazz musician is one thing, but what makes Sean Jones a great jazz musician is the way in which he utilizes the instruments at his disposal and how he chooses to use them, expertly placing a solo piece just at the right moment when a climactic note is needed.  The best example of this knowledge of the perfect timing was demonstrated by Jones when he performed on the music of My Little Suede Shoes by Charlie Parker. Be sure to catch this great musician live as he leads his talented quartet in and churns out note after note of breathtaking music that makes you swoon with pleasure.

Amongst those that have influenced him, Sean puts the legendary Miles Davis on the top of the list. The first two music albums that he released were Kind of Blue and Tutu by the iconic Miles Davis.  He has also acknowledged the effect of gospel music in shaping his own preferred sound and style. He was able to gain critical experience while performing with the Lincoln Centre Jazz Orchestra for almost half a decade.
