Teen Jazz Artists
Zak Astor - Piano
Zak Astor, 16 years old
Los Angeles, CA
Los Angeles High School for the Arts
Piano, playing 12 years
Yamaha Keyboard and Roland Amp
I began taking formal piano lessons at age 4. When I was 9 I switched
from Classical to Salsa and added Jazz at age 10. I just have been playing as
long as I can remember.
I currently have my own Salsa Band. I am just working real hard to be great.
My influences are Art Tatum and McCoy Tyner. I have studied with Andy Langham, David Arnay, and Matt Amper.
In the future I would like to play 300 shows at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
Teen Jazz offers one page hosting with space for a bio and a picture for Teen Jazz Musicians (or just young musicians, you do not necessarily have to be a "jazz musician"). If you are interested in being added to Teen Jazz, there are two ways that you can become a Teen Jazz Artist;
(A) You can write your own biography, including your name, how many years you have been playing, and where you are from and send it to Shannon Kennedy, or
(B) you can fill out the Teen Jazz Artists form to apply for eligibility.
Either way is easy and will only take you a few minutes. Don't miss out on this great opportunity for exposure!
Check out what the future of music looks like here with these talented young teen jazz artists.
Teen Jazz is also looking for young Jazz Artist features, so you could become a feature if you apply. In any of the boxes, state that you are interested in being featured, list your website, and Teen Jazz will see if you will be the next feature. You will be notified by email.
(A) You cannot submit one sentence answers to the Teen Jazz Artist Application form questions, they must be a short paragraph.
(B) You must respond to the confirmation email that you receive from Shannon Kennedy after you submit your profile or your profile will not be published on Teen Jazz.
(C) Pictures and Contact Information on your page are optional, but let us at Teen Jazz know if you would like to have both or either on your profile.
