May 21st 2025
This magical experience left my husband and I at a loss for words. The energy and passion in the space reverberated through every inch. We experienced joy in most beautiful way. We shared in the magic Jon curated and felt connected to the strangers next to us-even shared a tear. I will be playing back this incredible night in my mind for the rest of my life. Thank you Jon, we love you!

Jon Batiste Biography
Jon Batiste is one of history’s most brilliant, prolific, and accomplished musicians. Batiste
studied and received both a B.A. and M.F.A. at the world-renowned Juilliard School in New York
City. From 2015 until 2022, Batiste served as the bandleader and musical director of The Late
Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS. Most recently, Jon was awarded a Sports Emmy in the
category of “Outstanding Open/Tease” for his 2022 NCAA March Madness piece. In 2018, he
received a Grammy nomination for Best American Roots, and in 2020, he received two Grammy
nods for the albums: CHRONOLOGY OF A DREAM: LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD and
MEDITATIONS (with Cory Wong). In 2020, he won an Academy Award for Best Original Score for
the Disney/Pixar film SOUL, an honor he shared with fellow composers Trent Reznor and Atticus
Ross. Jon’s work on SOUL also earned him a Golden Globe, a BAFTA, a NAACP Image Award and
a Critic’s Choice Award. He is the second black composer in history, after legendary jazz
musician Herbie Hancock, to win an Academy Award for composition. Batiste’s latest studio
album, WE ARE, was released in March 2021 to overwhelming critical acclaim. Subsequently, he
was nominated for eleven Grammys across seven different categories, a first in Grammy
history. He went on to win five of those Grammys, including Album of the Year.
