One of the most intriguing albums we’ve recently encountered is also the subject of our conversation with one of our most intriguing guests.
Javier Nero has many titles: trombonist, composer, arranger, educator; Doctor of Musical Arts with a cognate (minor) in classical trombone performance at the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami, and. along the way, he’s also a Staff Sergeant in the US Army with the Army Band’s premier musical unit: “The Pershing’s Own” and as part of the pop element with the US Army Blues, a big band comprised of some of the nations most talented musicians. His musical career has been shaped by such jazz luminaries as Carl Allen, Steve Turre, John Daversa, Shelly Berg and Brian Lynch.
Javier has two album releases as a leader to his credit, the 2020 recording “Freedom”, and his recently released second album on the Outside In Music label called “Kemet:the Black Land” which is a tribute to this ancient Egyptian, highly-advanced Black civilization. It’s a backstory as fascinating and diverse as the man himself.
