Keyon Harrold

Blue Note Los Angeles presents Keyon Harrold, a GRAMMY-nominated trumpeter, vocalist, composer, and producer whose music moves with rare emotional force and stylistic freedom. Harrold’s sound blends jazz, hip-hop, R&B, blues, and cinematic soul into something raw, refined, and unmistakably contemporary. His trumpet playing carries both virtuosity and vulnerability, creating performances that can feel intimate one moment and expansive the next.

With albums such as Foreverland and The Mugician, Harrold has helped reshape the role of the trumpet in modern music, bringing it into dialogue with today’s broader cultural and sonic landscape. His career also includes collaborations with Jay-Z, Common, Nas, Maxwell, Black Pumas, Mac Miller, Keith Richards, YEBBA, Robert Glasper, Sam Henshaw, and Destin Conrad. Beyond the stage, his work in film, television, and artistic advocacy reflects a musician committed not only to sound, but to meaning. This performance offers the richness of modern jazz with the pulse of soul, hip-hop, and fearless creative exploration.
