A marvelously gifted drummer, Michael Carvin has been a prolific contributor to the contemporary jazz scene. Whether driving a group, doing a solo, or interacting with the rhythm section, Carvin has demonstrated outstanding technique and sensitive accompanying skills. His father was a drummer who taught him the basics prior to Carvin joining <a href="spotify:artist:0k3XbZNQTR8KVW2yWyJDDx">Earl Grant</a>'s big band in the mid-'60s. After a tour of duty in Vietnam, Carvin played with <a href="spotify:artist:5xLSa7l4IV1gsQfhAMvl0U">B.B. King</a>.
