For trumpeter-composer-producer Dan Rosenboom, there are no boundaries when it comes to making music. Genre distinctions are meaningless, unusual combinations of instruments are a hallmark, and sources of inspiration are as numerous as the stars.
His expansive and explosive new album Coordinates is a multi-faceted exploration of self through the lenses of found numerical patterns, cosmic temporal imagination, orchestrational possibility, and true friendship. It spans the stylistic universe from progressive jazz to metal, world, symphonic, and chamber music sensibilities and features an extended cast of virtuoso musicians from the Los Angeles jazz scene and Hollywood film recording studios.
““Rosenboom at his toughest and most colorful, busting the walls to find grandeur in the collapse of modernity and opening cracks into the corners of the soul.”
– Greg Burk, metaljazz.com
Alto saxophonist Devin Daniels stands out as one of the most unique and versatile voices to emerge from LA’s rapidly evolving creative music landscape. The Inglewood native has the unique ability to fit into any musical situation without sacrificing the integrity of his individual voice. For this special concert Devin will be premiering a new composition commissioned by the Los Angeles Jazz Society’s Jeff Clayton Memorial New Note Award.
“Devin Daniels is a musician from whom we can expect big things”

Devin Daniels – Alto saxophonist from Inglewood, LA, known for fluid improvisation and contemporary jazz innovation
Devin Daniels
Alto saxophonist Devin Daniels has the unique ability to fit into any musical situation without sacrificing the integrity of his individual voice. That, combined with his warm and thoughtful personality, is why Daniels has been invited to perform with bands led by Gerald Clayton, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, John Beasley, Sam Barsh and Jamael Dean.
In 2023, the great Herbie Hancock invited Devin to join him alongside jazz legends Ron Carter, Jack DeJohnette, Terence Blanchard, Chris Potter and LA-royalty, Kamasi Washington in a performance at the Hollywood Bowl honoring the late iconic saxophonist, Wayne Shorter. Following this performance, Hancock invited Daniels to join his band again, this time for a month-long US tour in the Spring of 2024.
Daniels’ love for the saxophone started in the “Just Lovin’ Music Studios” program, led by pianist Michelle Love— a free program designed to give students of color a chance to rent out and learn a new instrument. It was attending programs like this one that helped Daniels earn full-scholarships to study at some of the world’s most prestigious music schools: Berklee College of Music, FocusYear Basel and the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz Studies at UCLA.
Following his time at the Hancock Institute, Daniels was selected to be the Herb Alpert Foundation’s 2024 “Make Jazz Fellow”, where he was commissioned to compose a range of new music over the course of three months, much of which became the foundation for his newest album, LesGo!.
Recorded live at LA’s westside jazz club, Sam First, LesGo! captures the raw, unadulterated energy that’s been brewing in LA’s jazz scene over the past 15+ years. Joining him on this recording are four of Daniels’ exceptionally talented LA-based cohorts – trumpeter Julien Knowles, pianist Chris Fishman, bassist Jermaine Paul and drummer Benjamin Ring.
Daniels’ 2022 release Trio Exposition on The Village Records features Daniels in a trio format alongside drummer Christian Euman and bassist Logan Kane, giving the three musicians space to fully explore and push each other.
Daniels also produces electronic music in his downtime and has released an album on the Los Angeles-based record label, Leaving Records, under the name Kara-Do, joining a catalog with the likes of Knxwledge, Keifer, and Carlos Niño. His electronic music has been described as “… fusion at its finest, beat music and jazz moving forward in lockstep.”
