Lawrence Fields has earned a spot at the forefront of young jazz pianists, thanks to his blending of vintage ideals with a contemporary mindset. For the last five years, Downbeat Magazine has placed him near the top of the keyboardist category in their “Rising Stars” critics poll. Fields showcases his own dynamic blend of composition and playing in his trio and quartet, and his music is being featured internationally. His debut album featuring his trio and solo playing, “To the Surface”, was released on February 2, 2024.
Fields is a member of several bands led or co-led by saxophone icon Joe Lovano: including his Classic Quartet, and Sound Prints quintet with trumpeter Dave Douglas. The WSJ praised Fields’ “elegant, probing” solos with Sound Prints, while The New York Times noted that he is “integral to the band’s plunging, changeable style.” Modern-minded bandleader Christian Scott also relies on Fields for both piano and keyboards.
On record, Fields has collaborated with Christian Scott on several albums — including co-writing and co-producing material for the Grammy-nominated The Emancipation Procrastination.. He features prominently on the Grammy-nominated live recording Axiom, as well as the Grammy-nominated Ancestral Recall, and the Stretch Music and Christian Scott Atunde Adjuah albums. With Lovano/Douglas, the pianist features on three albums, including two critically-acclaimed studio releases: Other Worlds and Scandal.
