Brandon Suarez - Introducing (2025) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

My vision for this album was to create something that mirrors a classic vocal jazz record—featuring beloved standards—infused with the energy of a young rhythm section that shares my passion for the music. The members of my band and I have been playing together since we moved to New York City a couple of years ago.

My friendship with Caleb began at the Manhattan School of Music. One of the finest bass players in NYC, he’s made a name for himself on the jazz scene. During school, Caleb was deeply influenced by Paul Chambers, while I was immersed in the works of Coltrane. That connection sparked our collaboration on arrangements inspired by these legends.

Tyler and I met shortly after I arrived in the city, and we connected instantly. He is a gem among the new generation of jazz musicians and one of the most talented people I’ve ever known.

Jacob Smith is from my hometown of Miami, Florida. He is a serious musician whose passion is contagious. His commitment pushes me to grow every time we play.

What makes this collaboration so special is not just the musical chemistry we share, but the deep friendships we’ve built off the bandstand.

Introducing is more than a collection of songs; it’s a celebration of the friendships and musical inspirations that have shaped my journey as an artist. With the support of my talented bandmates, I’m excited to bring this vision to life—honoring the rich traditions of jazz while offering a fresh perspective from a new generation.
