Isaiah Collier:
Born and raised on Chicago’s Southside, multi-instrumentalist Isaiah Collier has been surrounded by music his entire life. His father a piano player and mother a vocalist, these were the first instruments that Isaiah learned. At the age of 11 he followed in his older brothers footsteps and picked up the saxophone, under the guidance of Julian Champion. Isaiah began performing as a young teenager in small clubs and lounges with his siblings, throughout the city with his parents standing by in support. In those beginning years he would meet many of his mentors that would help him develop his technique and knowledge of the history of the music, which is a key aspect to not only his sound but his passion for the music he presents. Collier's sound and approach is drawn from the influences of other masters saxophonists such as John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Gene Ammons, as well as two of his mentor Roscoe Mitchell, and, Ari Brown.
