Genre

Jazz

A highly esteemed guitarist with a clean attack and fluid, lyrical style, Russell Malone was known for his swinging, straight-ahead jazz, weaving in elements of blues, gospel, and R&B. Building upon the legacy of guitarists like Wes Montgomery and George Benson, Malone gained attention in the '80s, playing with Jimmy Smith, and went on to make vital contributions to album by stars like Harry Connick, Jr. and Diana Krall. He released his debut solo album in 1992 and continued to produce acclaimed works, like 1998's Sweet Georgia Peach, 2000's Look Who's Here, and 2010's Triple Play. Along with releasing 2017's Time for the Dancers, he collaborated with luminaries like Ray Brown, Ron Carter, and Benny Green, before his death in 2024.

Russell Malone has also released music as a member of Gerald Wilson and His Orchestra.
