Jason is the son of pianist and music educator Ellis Marsalis and his wife Dolores, and the youngest sibling of Wynton, Branford and Delfeayo. Together, the four brothers and Ellis comprise New Orleans\u2019s venerable first family of jazz.<\/p>\n<p>Starting out primarily as a drummer, Jason Marsalis drew wide-spread acclaim for his unique interpretations of modern jazz with such groups as the Ellis Marsalis trio and Marcus Roberts trio. However, with the release of 2008\u2019s \u201cMusic Update,\u201d listeners began to recognize Marsalis for his unique sound on the vibraphones.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.clarksvilleonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/Jason-Marshalis-Vibes-Quartet-Poster.jpg\"  class=\"thickbox no_icon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-112823\" title=\"Jason Marsalis Vibes Quartet\" src=\"http:\/\/www.clarksvilleonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/Jason-Marshalis-Vibes-Quartet-Poster-310x480.jpg\" alt=\"Jason Marsalis Vibes Quartet\" width=\"248\" height=\"384\" \/><\/a>Since 2000, Marsalis has been a mainstay on the New Orleans scene as a bandleader from the vibraphone chair. These groups have performed at Snug Harbor, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, The Jazz Playhouse, and The Satchmo Summerfest. Marsalis has also appeared at many of the foremost jazz venues through the US and Canada, and has toured Europe on the summer festival scene.<\/p>\n<p>Described as \u201cpowerful\u201d and \u201cprodigal,\u201d Marsalis as a vibraphonist was touted by the New York Times as \u201can excellent musician\u201d producing \u201crecords that are always worth hearing.\u201d The Chicago Tribune exclaimed, \u201cThose who value serious musicianship, sensitive phrasemaking and thoroughly idiomatic performances of a broad span of repertoire will find [his] work deeply satisfying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Jason Marsalis Vibes Quartet includes three musicians that have worked with Marsalis in varying capacities through their working relationship with Marcus Roberts. They are Austin Johnson, piano; David Potter, drums; and Will Goble, bass.<\/p>\n<p>The Jason Marsalis Vibes Quartet is sponsored by the Clarksville Community Concert Association with the support of the Austin Peay State University Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts, The Leaf Chronicle, and the Clarksville Arts and Heritage Development Council.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets can be purchased online at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.clarksvillemusic.org\" >www.clarksvillemusic.org<\/a> or by phone at 931.552.6093.
