Joe Robinson
| "I’ve only just begun," those
are the words of Joe Robinson, a man who has enamored audiences with
his music for 40 years.
A life long resident of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Joe is recognized
as a musical pioneer, striving to keep jazz vibrant and thriving. Joe began playing the trumpet at the age of thirteen. From the moment, he heard the sounds of Miles Davis and Chet Baker; he was hooked for life. His musical training began at Atkins High School under the tutelage of Harry Wheeler. He continued his studies at the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. Early in his career he |
 |
| contributed to the sounds of Gore and The Upsetters, The Eliminators, and The Bill Bright Quintet. He has worked with a myriad of jazz greats including Donald Byrd, Danny Richmond, The Betty Carter Group, and Lou Donaldson. | |
