Madison Square Music: Jeff "Tain" Watts Quartet

Jeff "Tain" Watts is a Grammy Award winner and one of the most in-demand jazz drummers in the world today. Along with explosive power, blinding speed, and mastery of complex rhythms and time signatures, Watts brings a rare sense of elegance, tried-by-fire composure, and a gritty street funk to his music. Voted best drummer by Modern Drummer Magazine in 1988 and 1993, Watts is a true jazz innovator, never failing to deliver the percussive magic that has been his trademark since his emergence on the contemporary jazz scene.
