Shaquim Muldrow is an African American jazz saxophonist and composer. A native of South Carolina, Muldrow is paving a way for himself in the worldwide jazz scene, starting with RDU. He has made appearances at the Shed Jazz Club, Dizzy’s Coca Cola, and the 2015 JEN conference as a featured soloist. Though Muldrow is accustomed to the small group format, as a graduate of NCCU he has been seen with the world renowned North Carolina Central Jazz Band behind Branford Marsalis and many other notable musicians.
Muldrow will be joined by Lovell ‘Skip’ Bradford Jr. on bass and Charles Pinckney on drums. Bradford is a Charlotte native, in his first year at UNC-G majoring in jazz studies, and Pinckney is a freelance jazz musician based in the NC area.
This season, Music of the Carolinas features artists from the next generation of traditional music in North Carolina, in partnership with the Millennial Traditional Artists Project of the North Carolina Arts Council’s Folklife Program. Since 2016, the MTA Project has identified and served younger generation artists keeping and creating our state’s cultural traditions.
