Trombonist Michael Dease is a swashbuckling soloist with a warm, yet harmonically inventive style steeped in the hard-swinging, post-bop tradition. A graduate of Juilliard, Dease emerged to acclaim in the 2000s, playing with both veteran and contemporary artists including Illinois Jacquet, Charles Tolliver, Christian McBride, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. He has released a bevy of his own albums, including 2007's Clarity, 2010's Grace, and 2013's Coming Home, the latter on his own D-Clef label. Along with holding the position of Associate Professor of Jazz Trombone at Michigan State University, Dease has recorded steadily for Posi-Tone, releasing the 2014 big-band album Relentless and small group dates like 2017's All These Hands and 2019's Never More Here. He also explored the works of Michigan composer Gregg Hill with 2023's The Other Shoe and 2024's Found in Space.
